How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

  • holding that policy was not unambiguously terminated, in part because its cessation was not announced until a hearing for a preliminary injunction
  • explaining that a plaintiff can sue a state official in his official capacity for prospective injunctive relief “to prevent a continuing violation of federal law”
  • treating a dispute regarding whether the plaintiff alleged an ongoing violation as a mootness inquiry
  • considering the fact that “the Board of Regents made similar promises before ... and failed to keep them, prompting the current law suit”
  • finding reasonable basis to conclude infringement might continue where counsel did not provide any reasoned basis for the voluntary cessation
  • noting in finding that infringing activities by professor had not been unambiguously terminated that “canceling the August review course did not bar a future course”
