From the Dallas Morning News:

A federal judge has dismissed a lawsuit against Irving ISD, the city of Irving and several others filed by the father of a teen who was arrested after bringing a homemade clock to school that was mistaken for a bomb.

The federal lawsuit alleged Ahmed Mohamed’s civil rights were violated in September 2015 when Irving police officers took him into custody at MacArthur High School and charged him with making a “hoax bomb.” The then 14-year-old was also suspended from school for three days.

You might recall while all that was going on, then President Obama invited Ahmed to a science event at the White House.

Will the family attempt to file another suit? It looks like time is definitely up.
