Today, Circuit Judge Wendell Griffen heard testimony from plaintiffs' witnesses in the opening round of the lawsuit challenging the state Education Department's takeover of the Little Rock School District. The plaintiffs are asking Griffen for a preliminary injunction, which, if granted, would presumably reverse the January 28 decision of the State Board of Education to dissolve the local LRSD board and seize control of the district. The testimony lasted all day and will resume tomorrow at 10 a.m.
