Louisiana supreme court revives librarian Amanda Jones’s defamation suit
Dec 31 2024
Louisiana librarian and freedom to read advocate Amanda Jones is ending 2024 with a major legal victory. On December 27, the Louisiana Supreme Court ruled that Jones’s 2022 defamation case against two local men who accused her of pushing pornography to children can continue. In a 4-2 ruling, the court found that an appeals court erred in denying Jones’s appeal based on an apparently missed deadline.
