    I would have just disarmed: grab arm, pull to ground. If he then remained violent then hit him. Still, if law action wants to be taken then talk to lawyer.

    I would guess that you could appeal the decision within the school system without going to a court or hiring a lawyer or anything. There are certain circumstances where schools have "zero tolerance" policies and it can end up creating big consequences for minor things. You should certainly follow up on this, though. There's no reason not to, and you have a very reasonable explanation for what happened. You saw an older boy assaulting your younger sister and intervened. The fact that he assaulted her again by kicking her even after you arrived would justify a physical response as far as I'm concerned.

    You need to find out exactly how to appeal this, who to talk to, who is over them, etc. If the principal makes the decision, then you could talk to the school board. If the school board decides, you could take to the superintendent, etc. Take it all the way to the top. And if that doesn't work, then I would even consider taking it to a civil court by suing the school system or the woman that suspended you in her official capacity.

    I think you could convince a jury that you were justified in doing what you did, and could possibly win a judgment against the school or the woman.

    if you can't find anyone above the person that made the decision, tell them you'll go to the local news station. I'm sure bad press would scare them, and if doesn't, heck, you might get on tv

    I'd suggest you at least talk to a lawyer about it.

    I do know that in my school district, administration can not be held accountable for any of their decisions, you can only sue the district as a whole here =\. Just try to make sure that the end result is your suspension being undone (even if it's after you took the two weeks off, you still don't want it on your permanent record and then you get to make up the homework) and hopefully something being done against the parent, regardless of it's through a lawsuit or an in-district appeal.

    You should talk to a lawyer. But I am all for going to court and getting some justice. There is nothing wrong with your behavior. I would have done the same thing if not worse. If you go to court, your sisters nose would be proof enough and that kid isn't smart enough to keep on lying to the questions the lawyer may ask so I know you will win.

    But it's up to you I guess. Best thing would be to talk to a lawyer. Don't let this slide. If you do, that kid might do the same thing to someone else or even attack your sister again in the future. He obviously thinks he can get away with whatever he wants.

    Good luck and keep us informed about your decision.

    You may be able to get a second look at your suspension since there could be grounds of bias, but I am 1000% sure you won't get anywhere about the assault since you used excessive force.

    Of course ! She didn't believe it since the boy is of her family.

    @Tarajunky : with no witnesses of what happened before, I don't think I can do that .

    + The old man could be witness that I hit the boy, not what happened before.

    Well me and my family decided to go to the school administration today, in order to clarify things with the school board.

    They want to solve this if possible without the help of a lawyer to make it simple.

    Your school is very messed up if the board can make a decisions when the board leader's son is involved? In most schools they would have the meeting without the leader so no bias could take over.

    Well thats a good idea I guess. You could try to 'scare' them by telling them that you will go to court if this wasn't taken care of by the administration fairly. And I still think the leader deserves some sort of punishment for being unfair even if its a family member...That just pisses me off...

    Whatever happened to equality....

    I think you did the right thing by beating him up..
    But since it was out of school how could they suspend you? Ive been in fights out side of school and since it was off school property, my school had no say in my punishment..

    The school board leader was the boy's uncle.

    I have gone to the meeting with the administration today, they say that I will not be un-suspended.

    Wierd enough, the leader was not there.

    You have full right to hit someone if they do that to your sister. The fact still remains that he was 11 and I'm assuming your much older. Now this would piss me off just as much if not more than it did you so i understand what your saying and your actions. You still should have controlled you anger. Also she had almost no right to suspend you, so i think you might have a half-way decent case in court.

    Well, if they punished you they should least punish the other kid. Give him 2 weeks as well . If they are able to give u 2 weeks suspension for beating somone up, they can easily give the other kid 2 weeks suspension for initiating beating the girl up(add details: its a girl, she bleeding, she's younger, etc). School board's head or not, the same law applies throughout.

    but of course, it would be more benifical to justification if you post (if you can) your sister's side of the story, and the other guy's side of story... and even their parents side of story.

    What arguments did they give for sustaining your suspension?

    I would contact the local media if you want to push it further. I'm sure they'd be willing to do a feature about this. It has a lot of appeal, I think.

    A young girl with her Pokemon cards from a birthday present being accosted, threatened, and assaulted by a group of older boys. Just that alone would be enough for some news stations to report on it. The fact that you attempted to intercede and ended up being punished just makes it that much more worthy of some media scrutiny. That's the next logical step as far as I'm concerned.

    You could always try to cut a deal where you admit no wrongdoing, but accept a 2 week suspension as long as it doesn't go on your record.

    If you can't wiggle out of it, I wouldn't worry too much about it. But I know I wouldn't go down without a fight.

    That sucks. I would have done the same, probably hit him more than you did.
    Good luck...

    That's really pathetic on sooo many levels. First I can't believe a (fifth?) grade boy was beating up a (3rd grade?) girl over pokemon cards? Second, the fact that you are suspended for beating him up is just plain stupid. I agree with the others that this would make a funny news segment though. Much better than the usual "boyfriend pours alcohol on girl and burns her" stuff. Plus, it'll annoy the school systems and that jerk kid's uncle!

    man if it were me, the other guy and whoever it was would probably have wound up in the hospital. but i digress.

    i think a 2 week suspension isnt all bad. at least your not getting expelled. (like some other people i know)

    i know without a doubt, if it happened anywhere else, you could have landed yourself in Juvenile jail for your actions. I know i know, the situation was intense and you had to do something to protect your sister. In situations like these, people will always tell you shouldn't have hit the other boy, but they probably haven't been in your situation (like i have).

    Don't worry about it. The suspension is probably going to stay on your record if you don't take it to court. Though without a second witness and evidence, it would be really difficult to win.

    and wtf is up with the school board. did they tell you what happened to the other boy and what his consequences were? If not, you can bring this to court claiming the school board is showing bias for the other boy. You would need a lawyer though... it'd cost some cash if you were going to do it.

    that or the media. Tarajunky was on the spot.

    They are sisters...

    Hospital? Pffft. When I'm finished with him, he won't need a doctor. He'll need a priest.

    tldr.. but if no one mentioned it.. if you goto court etc, be SURE to bring up biased decision based on the one boy was related to the woman who suspended you. She should not have had any say in that decision due to bias.
