OK, first let me tell you the story. James Ingraham was a 14 year old student at a Junior high school, he was told to get off the stage in a auditorium, but he wouldn't listen. The teacher told him to go to the principle's office, and keep in mind that this was back in 1977, the principle told James to been over for a spanking from the principle's paddle. When James didn't comply, the principle called in his assistant and the assistant principle to hold him down so he could get spanked, James was seriously injured and required medical surgery and James sued them because it qualified as cruel and unusual punishment
