A unanimous panel from the District of Columbia Court of Appeals has dismissed a school's attack on the speech rights of a pro-life sidewalk counselor, Larry Cirignano.

According to a report from Liberty Counsel, the ruling from the appeals court in Washington dismissed the claims that has been launched by Two Rivers Public Charter School.

The organization sued Cirignano "after he peacefully stood on a sidewalk one time near a Planned Parenthood abortion facility situated in between an elementary and middle school in the District of Columbia," Liberty Counsel explained.

He responded with an anti-SLAPP suit against the school.
