First Amendment Clinic and Norins featured in The Atlanta Journal-Constitution

Abstract

The First Amendment Clinic and its director, Clinical Assistant Professor Clare R. Norins, were featured in The Atlanta Journal-Constitution regarding the recent settlement of Hassan v. City of Atlanta, in which the clinic represented plaintiff Sharif Hassan, a photojournalist arrested while covering summer 2020 protests in Atlanta. The lawsuit asserted that Hassan was arrested in retaliation for exercising his First Amendment right to record. The litigation also challenged the City of Atlanta’s city-wide curfew order that contained no exception for the working press. The article titled "Atlanta to pay settlement to photojournalist arrested in 2020" was written by Riley Bunch and published 5/8/23.
