Best Answer

The Second March from Selma to Montgomery was banned by Federal District Court Judge Frank Minis Johnson when, after the marchers attemptede to gain a court order to prevent police interference, he issued a restraining order preventing the march from happening, until he could hold additional hearing later in the week.

The march leaders stood by this restraining order, knowing that he would lift it later and not wanting to upset one of the few southern judges who was often sympathetic to their cause.
