Appellate Judge Issues Ground-Breaking Title IX Decision Against UCLA
Attorney Mark Hathaway, who represented John Doe: “Today the court acknowledged that biased assumptions against male students and the procedural irregularities in UCLA Title IX campus enforcement, all disfavoring accused male students, show an unacceptable pattern and practice of gender bias at the University of California. The ruling allows John Doe to renew his effort to hold UCLA accountable for what was done to him and to stop UCLA from harming other students regardless of gender.”
Doe v. Regents of the University of California‘s critical files and decision are found in our Title IX Lawsuits Database.

With Title IX, courts navigate gulf between student victims and their accused perpetrators
“What is a Title IX investigation? Is it an academic inquiry? A criminal proceeding? Something else?”
“There’s nothing there about being punitive in nature. It’s now become a punitive situation. Some of these schools have taken it upon themselves to think that they take over and they’re now law enforcement.” – Stuart Bernstein, a New York attorney with Nesenoff & Miltenberg who has been practicing on Title IX cases
Professor: SCOTUS justice’s refusal to wear face mask is like ‘manspreading,’ ‘bro language’
“Kara Alaimo, a professor of journalism, media studies, and public relations who is a self-described ‘expert on women, social media & global/political communication,’ took advantage of reports that SCOTUS Justice Sonia Sotomayor was upset at Gorsuch’s reluctance to wear a mask.”
The report was later rebuked in a joint statement by both Justice Sotomayor and Chief Justice John Roberts, decimating the credibility of NPR correspondent Nina Totenberg who both initially reported the story and doubled down.
