A federal lawsuit filed against the Indiana Bureau of Motor Vehicles after it denied a request to create a specialty license plate for a group that serves gay teens has been dismissed.
The action paves the way for the Indiana Youth Group to file a new request for a plate, said its executive director, Mary Byrne.
Specialty license plates are prized because they can bring in considerable funds and raise the public profile of sponsoring organizations.
