Another suspension, another lawsuit
Article here. It's a total boon for litigators and a nightmare for college men. Excerpt:
'An attorney for University of Dayton basketball player Dyshawn Pierre calls UD’s decision to suspend him for a semester following a sexual assault accusation that didn’t lead to criminal charges unfair, and says he will fight it.
“Ignoring that decision made by qualified professionals, the University of Dayton subjected Dyshawn to fundamentally defective and unfair university disciplinary procedures orchestrated to appease a broken Department of Education policy,” said a statement from New York attorney Peter Ginsberg.
“We will be challenging the university’s handling of this matter in the near future.”
Ginsberg’s statement released Wednesday evening followed exclusive reporting by this newspaper that Pierre is not enrolled this semester at UD after another student accused him of a sexual assault that he denies happened, and county prosecutors say lacks sufficient evidence to merit charges.'
