Sexual Abuse

The court granted summary judgment on vicarious liability and denied the school board's motion to dismiss direct negligence claims.

Appeals Court ruled that a class action lawsuit against Edna Mahan Correctional Facility for Women, alleging rampant sexual discrimination, abuse, and retaliation, may proceed. The trial court found that plaintiffs satisfied class-action requirements.
