Although most of the black lives matters marches and demonstrations are now history, the court cases drag on in San Luis Obispo county.
A BLM activist who attends Cal Poly is asking the judge to dismiss charges against him. Amman Asfaw is charged with false imprisonment for blocking traffic.
He participated in a protest on July 21st during which demonstrators blocked highway 101 for about an hour.
Amman Asfaw is one of seven people charged with false imprisonment charges.
