United States Ninth Circuit


EASON v. CLARK COUNTY SCH. DIST., 00-17370/17377, 01-15749/15692

A county school district was not an "arm of the state" entitled to Eleventh Amendment immunity, thus state and federal claims alleging abuse, excessive corporal punishment, and constitutional violations by school educators were incorrectly dismissed.
