The order has "got to be good," Mychal Bell's attorney, Bob Noel, told CNN. "It means we have a day in court. Any day in court is going to be a good day."Earlier, there was an aura of a pilgrimage at the site where the controversial tree once stood before school administrators had it removed. Many people touched the ground and some retrieved a lump of dirt, said CNN's Eric Marrapodi. He said the part of the town he was in was ill-prepared for the crowds -- no water or toilets were available. In the background, groups shouted "Black power" and "No justice, no peace." The demonstrations shut down the town of 3,000 in central Louisiana. Many residents left for the day, and government agencies, businesses and schools were closed.

WAY TO GO JENA 6 RALLY ...SUCCESS!!!
RAPPER BUN B
I didn't forget Jena 6 Thousands of protesters came to the tiny town of Jena, Louisiana, Thursday to show their indignation over what they consider unjust, unequal punishments meted out in two racially charged incidents.
Officers lead Al Sharpton, center, through Jena, Louisiana, during Thursday's protest. They swarmed over the grounds of Jena High School, where nooses were
hung from a tree in early August 2006, about three months before six black teens
known as the "Jena 6" were accused of beating a white classmate.
While the tension was palpable, news broke Thursday afternoon that the 3rd Circuit
Court of Appeal ordered a hearing within 72 hours to determine if the only one of the six still behind bars can be released.

This is awesome!!
very happy with the turn out!!!
i wore black today also this is a good look for black people way to stick together
glad to see you are talking about it
Again another example of mob mentality attempting to affect justice. Will a riot ensue if the judgment received from the 3rd Circuit Court of Appeal is not what you were hoping for?
awesome
happy with the outcome so far
FANTASTIC NOW ONLY IF THEY WOULD RELEASE HIM!!!
sad the kid is still in jail although the march was a success..but still no justice
