	Marc Hall - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Hall, who is gay, submitted the name of his boyfriend, Jean-Paul Dumond, and was denied on the grounds that homosexuality is incompatible with Roman Catholic teaching.
		Supported by his family and a wide variety of community organizations, Hall thus took the school board to court in a two-day hearing that began on May 6, 2002.
		Hall's lawyer, David Corbett, argued that the denial of his request violated the Ontario Education Act, which requires school boards in the province not to discriminate.

	Egale Canada > Marc Hall Hearing
		The evidence establishes the harm of the Board’s decision to Marc Hall, the harm to lesbians and gays generally, and the fact that this kind of exclusion is precisely the kind of conduct that leads to the harms of invisibility and marginalization of lesbian and gay students.
		Marc’s wish to attend the prom is inherently expressive conduct, since it sends the message that he’s gay, is not embarrassed, and is not willing to hide it.
		He expressed concern that Marc Hall is seeking the "ultimate relief"—if he succeeds in obtaining the right to attend the prom through an injunction, he could then discontinue his court case, and the Board would have lost the opportunity to obtain clarification of its s.93 constitutional rights at trial.

	Marc Hall Prom Hearing (May 6-7, 2002)
		The objection is not to Marc's attending with [his boyfriend] or dancing with him at the prom, but that Marc may have impure thoughts or plan to sin in the future.
		The evidence establishes the harm of the Board's decision to Marc Hall, the harm to lesbians and gays generally, and the fact that this kind of exclusion is precisely the kind of conduct that leads to the harms of invisibility and marginalisation of lesbian and gay students.
		Instead, "the real problem the Board has with Marc is that he is not ashamed to be gay." The Board suggests that Marc is seeking their approval for his "lifestyle", but Marc "does not seek nor require their approval of his relationship." He just wants to go the prom with his partner.

	04-3142 -- Hall v. City of Charlotte -- 02/01/2005
		Hall sought monetary damages against the officers, claiming they had violated his rights under the Eighth Amendment by assaulting him or failing to intervene to protect him from harm.
		The authority provided by Hall as support for his argument that Booth should not be applied is not on point in that the cited cases address the retroactive application of statutes, not the temporal scope of an interpretation of a statute by the Supreme Court.
		Hall also makes three brief references apparently to his submission to the district court of his various administrative claims and appeals.

	ImageOut - The Rochester Lesbian & Gay Film & Video Festival
		Although the film specifically addresses Marc's battle for basic respect and tolerance under Canadian law, the issues of discrimination based on sexual orientation and separation of church and state rage in a strikingly similar manner here in the United States.
		Throughout the film, both Church and School Board argue that while they respect homosexual individuals, they cannot condone "homosexual conduct." On the other side, Marc and his attorney claim that the decision to deny him entry to the prom is pure discrimination, violating the Canadian Charter's guarantee of rights to equality and freedom of expression.
		A reluctant role model and hero, Marc has been widely praised by gay and lesbian groups, as well as civil liberties activists in Canada, the United States, and abroad for refusing to accept his principal's and his school board's declaration that homosexuality is wrong and has no place in a Catholic environment.
