McGill University has withdrawn the injunction against the pro-Palestinian encampment that had formed on its campus, stating that court action was no longer necessary now that the camp had been dismantled. CBC reports that McGill’s lawyers were not present at the case management hearing scheduled for last Thursday; the proceeding was suspended and the law firm representing McGill later filed court documents to provide notice about the withdrawal. Students’ Society of McGill University VP External Affairs Hugo Victor Solomon said that the protesters were surprised but happy to hear about the withdrawal, given the future implications that further legal action would have had for student protests.
