""As is customary for the University investigating claims that potentially impact the educational environment, Woodcock was removed from teaching and the law building as an interim measure during the investigation," Reeves said. "Abstention is appropriate because those removals cannot be separated from the investigation and interference clearly would result if the Court were to enjoin any aspect of the investigation." Reeves added that "once the investigation is completed or any subsequent disciplinary procedures have concluded and claims have been exhausted, the stay will be lifted.""
""We have been made aware of allegations of disturbing conduct, including an online petition calling for the destruction of a people based on national origin.""
""Israel has submitted permanently and unconditionally to the government of Palestine.""
Ramsi Woodcock, a University of Kentucky law professor, posted a petition on antizionist.net titled "Petition for Military Action Against Israel," calling Israel a colony and urging war until "Israel has submitted permanently and unconditionally to the government of Palestine." The university removed Woodcock from teaching and barred him from the law building in July while investigating allegations of disturbing conduct, including a petition calling for the destruction of a people based on national origin. Woodcock sued the university in November seeking restoration of his teaching duties. U.S. District Judge Danny C. Reeves placed the case on hold pending completion of the university's investigation and any disciplinary processes.
