RE :”Bradley and Diedre Morrow of West Mayfield sued the Blackhawk School District in 2010 after the district refused to expel a student who repeatedly attacked one of their daughters, even after the attacker was twice adjudicated delinquent because of the assaults.
In a precedential ruling, a 10-judge majority of the 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals confirmed the March 2011 ruling by U.S. Magistrate Judge Lisa Pupo Lenihan that schools don't have the same control over students that the government has over inmates and people involuntarily committed for mental health reasons, so it doesn't have the same constitutional duty to protect students from harm. “

So the school won against a lawsuit filed against them over a student who was harmed IN SCHOOL because its not the schools problem???

Yet what if a male teacher was coming on to a female teacher in that school when it wasnt welcome by her?? The same court would rule against the school a big $$$ for sure.

check out how a in Maryland lawsuit shut down a very popular swimming hole that was open for near a century in 2002.

A popular Baltimore County swim club was negligent two years ago when ill-equipped lifeguards responded slowly to cries for help after a 24-year-old competitive swimmer disappeared, and later drowned, in the deep waters of its quarry, a county Circuit Court jury decided yesterday.
In court, Whelihan argued that the club's lifeguards and management acted properly on July 2, 2000, after Eben's boyfriend yelled that his girlfriend had disappeared while swimming in the quarry.
She said there was scant chance anyone could have rescued Eben, who had slipped under the water unseen and without a struggle. She also said Eben was partly to blame for her own death because before swimming she had taken pain medication that could have made her drowsy.
“This quarry is big and deep, and when you swim in it, you know that,” Whelihan said.
But the Ebens’ attorney, Margaret M. McKee, argued that the swim club should have had an appropriate emergency response plan and sufficient rescue equipment, and that lifeguards were responsible for protecting swimmers.
