JEFFERSON PARISH, La. The parents of 9-year-old Ka Mauri Harrison were back in court Wednesday in their continued fight for justice for their son. The fourth grade Woodmere Elementary School student was suspended six days in September after his teacher saw a BB gun in his house during virtual learning.
Attorney General Jeff Landry joined his parents in court to hear arguments between the family and JP Schools.
Ka Mauri s parents are fighting to have the suspension dropped from his record. It s been a lot, it s been overwhelming, said Nyron Harrison, Ka Mauri s father, after Wednesday s court hearings. I feel good and positive about today.

Louisiana Attorney General Jeff Landry will be part of the federal case of a fourth-grader suspended after he moved a BB gun that his brother had tripped over during a virtual class, the boy s attorney in the case said. The judge granted intervention, Chelsea Cusimano, a partner at Brener & Kraus Law in New Orleans, told the
Louisiana Record during a telephone interview. So the attorney general of the state of Louisiana is now a party of this lawsuit. That issue has been resolved.
Up next to be resolved is Jefferson Parish School Board s call for an act named for the boy, that passed unanimously in the state legislature last year, be declared unconstitutional.
The 9-year-old was taking a test via remote learning on Sept. 11 when his brother entered their shared bedroom and knocked over the Daisy BB gun, placing it in view of the teacher and class.
A student at Woodmere Elementary School in Harvey, Ka’Mauri “safely and responsibly moved a BB gun his younger brother had accidentally knocked over,” said the release.
Ka’Mauri was initially accused of “bringing a federally banned weapon to school,” but a hearing officer later determined that he was “guilty of displaying a facsimile weapon while receiving virtual instruction from Woodmere Elementary School,” according to the lawsuit. He was suspended for six days.
