The court documents include the state's July 31 response to the plaintiffs' request for an injunction, the plaintiffs' August 3 and August 7 briefs and the docket report.
They also include two exhibits the plaintiffs filed with their injunction request. The exhibits show written decisions from the regents' Academic, Clinical and Student Affairs Committee on two French courses and an English course.
