(JUST THE NEWS) – A student who claims he was wrongly found responsible for sexual misconduct due to anti-male bias and arbitrary decisions by Iowa's Dordt College will get to argue his case before a federal jury. It could be one of the last such cases to make it that far.
A federal appeals court is considering whether to require plaintiffs to use their real names by default in sexual misconduct litigation against colleges, which would run counter to the "great majority of district courts" on the subject and could discourage students from filing "meritorious lawsuits," according to a law professor.
The Boston-based 1st U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals heard oral arguments in a case against MIT Wednesday, a week after an Iowa federal judge refused to dismiss Title IX "erroneous outcome," common-law due process and contractual claims against Dordt by "John Doe."
