FLORIDA – The University of Florida’s independent student newspaper has filed a lawsuit seeking to halt the university’s plan to replace two dozen of the newspaper’s racks after a months-long negotiation between the two groups failed to produce a compromise.

In the lawsuit filed Wednesday, Campus Communications, Inc., which publishes The Independent Florida Alligator, seeks both a temporary and preliminary injunction to stop the university from implementing the new distribution policy scheduled to take effect August 15.
