Ogden: May 23 Judge's Order

The Court ruled on May 23, 2019. There are only a few open issues now. 

Read the ruling here >>>

• The Judge ruled that the LSC lacked standing in this lawsuit. Therefore, all LSC members were removed from the lawsuit *with* prejudice.
  
• Counts 1 and 2 dismissed as moot.
  
• "Plaintiff's argument smacks of bad faith." pp. 21

Counts 4, 5 and 6 were dismissed *with* prejudice. These related to the pre-suspension hearings being lawful.

• Count 3 stands. The Board can now answer this Count. This one deals with whistle-blowing.
• Mr. Beyer may wish to try and re-file a Count 7.

The issue of pay and when the suspension starts will be orally argued on May 31, 2019.

The Judge seemed not very impressed with either sides' legal work but did a great deal of her own legal work on this case.
