Ruling on vegan inmate lawsuit May 21

An inmate, who is suing the Attorney General and the Superintendent of Prisons in an attempt to maintain his vegan lifestyle while on remand, will know next month if the court has looked favourably on his constitutional motion.

Inyah Iroyal Jones had claimed that being forced to eat prison food put his health at risk.
