UC Davis Wrestling Lawsuit Dismissed

By Erin Buzuvis, Sudha Setty, and Kristine Newhall

Until I can find a copy of the decision to read, UC Davis's press release is going to have to do...

A federal judge has ruled in favor of the University of California, Davis, in a Title IX case filed by four women who wanted to be on the intercollegiate wrestling team.

In an order issued Wednesday in Sacramento, the court held that the plaintiffs in Mansourian v. Regents of the University of California failed to give the campus notice that they were making an allegation against the entire women's intercollegiate athletic program. The plaintiffs had changed the focus of their lawsuit to allege Title IX violations in the overall program after the court dismissed their claims pertaining to the wrestling team last October, finding them to be untimely.

A prior post on the Mansourian case is here.
