Important #TitleIX K-12 case, on cert. from the CA4, now set for #SCOTUS conference on 10/28. SG brief opposes cert. Attys for Fairfax School Board recently filed supplemental brief arguing continuing post-Gebser confusion re: proper scope of Title IX. See 21-968.

On today's Order List, #SCOTUS has invited the Solicitor General to file briefs on the government's view of this important #TItleIX issue. See 21-968. That will probably take some time, as the question will implicate the current Administration's pending Title IX regulations.

Just in: In detailed opinion, CA2 certifies series of questions to CT Supreme Court on whether, under CT law, TIX accusers receive absolute immunity for allegedly false testimony before campus TIX tribunals. CA2 reverses district court, which held for accuser in Yale case.

This was a SJ case. But court begins by noting that CA7 Barrett/Purdue opinions "better accords" with text & analytical framework of TIX, at least at the pleading stage. CA10 thus joins CA4, CA5, CA7, CA8, and CA9 in using this standard.

Terrible decision that once again shows the danger of making motions to dismiss where court has to accept Complaint's facts as true and legal claims need only meet the low bar of "plausibility." Welcome insight from NYS lawyers, but judge may have got it wrong on NY law also.

NY Higher Ed lawyers take note! SDNY allows negligence claim vs private college arising from intake and investigation of #TitleIX complaint. Promise to investigate created "special relationship" => duty of care to student. "Mishandling" investigation breaches promise. Doe v SLC
