Anthony Soltero's parents, Louise Corales and Jamie Soltero, and one of
the other students, alleging intentional infliction of emotional
distress. Anthony and three other DeAnza Middle School students
skipped class to join a 2006 rally against federal legislation that
would have criminalized helping illegal immigrants.
