John Doe v. Regents of State of California
Pleading here. Excerpt:
'1. This case arises out of the actions taken and procedures employed by Defendant the Regents of the University of California, also known as the University of California at Santa Barbara (“Defendant” or “UCSB” or “UC Santa Barbara”) concerning allegations made against Plaintiff John Doe (“John Doe”), a male senior student at UCSB as a result of false allegations of nonconsensual sexual activity with fellow UCSB freshman student Jane Doe.
...
59. UCSB performed an unfair and biased investigation in favor of Jane Doe’s allegations of sexual misconduct, in violation of its own stated policies requiring that disciplinary proceedings be “prompt, fair and impartial.”
...
61. Yet, the one futile attempt at Early Resolution of this matter prior to commencement of a formal investigation was the sole inquiry by Ms. Perkin as to whether John Doe was, “ready to take responsibility?” As Ms. Perkin failed to explain that such an inquiry was an attempt to resolve the matter at the outset, John Doe simply responded that he did not believe he engaged in any wrongful conduct. Thereafter, UCSB did not engage in any further attempts at early resolution.'
