On December 11, 2017 the jury in the TracyvFAU 10-day trial returned a verdict in favor of defendant Florida Atlantic University. The federal case involved the work of over 12 attorneys and close to 500 separate legal briefs. Yet the decision's implications for the First Amendment and free speech can be summarized in five minutes.

Trial attorney Matthew Benzion discusses Florida Atlantic University's unlawful use of an "Outside Employment/Activities Policy" to fire Professor James Tracy and restrict faculty and staff speech before-the-fact--a policy that is now effectively part of federal law and can be arbitrarily used to police and reprimand any public employee's personal activities and online speech.
