A FORMER high school student disciplined for "cyberbullying" one of her teachers on Facebook has filed a lawsuit against the principal of the school for allegedly violating her freedom of speech.
Katherine Evans, 18, who recently graduated from Pembroke Pines Charter High School north of Miami, Florida is suing principal Peter Bayer for suspending her after she posted negative comments about her English teacher, the Miami Herald reported.
Ms Evans created the Facebook group "Ms Sarah Phelps is the worst teacher I've ever met!" in November 2007 featuring a picture of the teacher, and asked her friends to join, the newspaper said.
The three students who joined only did so to praise Ms Phelps and criticise Ms Evans, after which she took down the page from the popular social networking site, it said.

FIRST-born girls are not as quick to cast off their virginity as their younger sister, new research shows.
An Australasian Society for Human Biology conference yesterday heard the order in which children are born into a family affects their reproductive behaviour later in life.
Previous research has shown firstborn children tend to be more confident and family oriented while the middle-born children have the toughest time.
Now it seems there are differences when it comes to reproductive strategies, including the age at first sexual intercourse, first pregnancy and first birth.
Middle-born children stand out in the survey results, with females 2.6 times more likely to fall pregnant at any given age...

A NEW York City police officer has been accused of sodomising a man with a police baton on a subway platform while two others helped cover up the crime.
Detective Richard Kern, 25, was charged with aggravated sexual assault, which is punishable by up to 25 years in prison, and other charges.
Andrew Morales and Alex Cruz, both 26, are charged with participating in the attempted cover up, which included writing a summons for the victim following the assault. If convicted, each faces up to four years in prison.
"I'm pleased but it still hasn't changed what happened to me," the victim, Michael Mineo, 24, told reporters after the arraignment. "I still have abdominal pain, rectal pain."
His lawyer, Kevin Mosley said, "It was, for all intents and purposes, rape."

Billie Watts said she was tempted but couldn't bring herself to keep $97,000 she said she found in a Cracker Barrel restroom. The 75-year-old Murfreesboro woman told The Daily News Journal that she discovered the money inside a tapestry bag hanging from a hook on a stall door last Thursday.
But five days later, the money and its anonymous owner remain something of a mystery in the community, where police said they have no report of the find.
While digging through the bag to figure out its owner, Watts said she found a bundle of neatly stacked $1,000 bills.
