Massachusetts SJC to Hear Case About Weston High School Student

The Associated Press is reporting that a student is at the center of a case regarding a cookie made with marijuana.

The AP reports in the Boston Globe on Sunday:

The court is being asked to decide whether a judge abused his discretion by reinstating a high school student who was expelled after another student identified him as the supplier of the cookie.

School administrators argue that the judge improperly stepped into a school disciplinary matter that should have been left to them.

But the student, known as "Robert Doe" in court documents, refused to talk to administrators on the advice of his father and a lawyer. His lawyers are now arguing that his silence should not be taken negatively by administrators, says the AP.

Arguments will begin on Monday, Oct. 3.
