NJ mom intends to sue over `pantsing'

HASBROUCK HEIGHTS, N.J. - February 3, 2010

The intent to sue comes after Cindy Schwalb's daughter's sweatpants were pulled down by a boy in gym class at Hasbrouck Heights Middle School last year.

At a school forum on bullying in September, Schwalb lashed out at the school of not taking "pantsing" seriously.

She pleaded not guilty to a disorderly conduct charge.

The mother says she'll wait until the charges are settled before deciding whether to move ahead with the lawsuit.

School officials say the boy in the pantsing case was given three days detention and was banned from a school trip.
