   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  07-3437
                          and No:  08-1139
   U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Arkansas - Pine Bluff   
   [PUBLISHED] [Smith, Author, with Gruender, Circuit Judge, and
   Rosenbaum, District Judge]
   Civil case - Civil Rights. Applying Tinker, the district court did not
   err in finding that defendant School District violated plaintiffs' First
   Amendment rights when it disciplined them for wearing black arm bands
   to protest the school's dress code; district court did not err in holding 
   that nominal damages must be awarded when the jury finds a violation of
   plaintiffs' constitutional rights, and it did not abuse its discretion in
   amending the judgment to reflect a nominal damage award as a matter of
   law; district court did not err in permanently enjoining defendants from
   disciplining any student who wears a band substantially like the ones
   plaintiffs wore around their wrists; award of attorneys' fees affirmed.
