Lawyers to file suit challenging school cell phone ban

Lawyers for a group of parents of children enrolled in NY public school plan to file a lawsuit today challenging the city's ban on cell phones in the schools, reports the NY Sun.

"Eight parents, along with the chancellor's Parent Advisory Council, are behind the suit, which will be filed in state court and will claim the ban is illegal under state law and violates the 14th Amendment of the Constitution."
