A federal judge has dismissed a lawsuit filed by the father of an Irving teen arrested and suspended for bringing a homemade clock to school that staff mistook for a bomb.

A court document shared by the Dallas Morning News shows the federal judge's ruling, which details that no damages will be paid out by the city of Irving, Irving ISD or several other defendants involved in the case.

In 2015, 14-year-old Ahmed Mohamed made headlines after he was arrested for bringing an electronic clock built into a pencil case that school officials and police believed was a "hoax bomb."

The incident sparked a nationwide debate over whether the Irving teen, who was given the nickname "Clock boy," was religiously and racially profiled.

This is the second time U.S. District Judge Sam A. Lindsay has dismissed the lawsuit. Last year, he threw out the complaint on the grounds that there was no evidence of religious or racial discrimination.

The case was amended by the family and filed again, which was dismissed again on Monday.
