NCAA Responds to Senator Corman's Amended Complaint

Posted on 3/27/13 12:00 AM

"In what is now his third attempt to avoid dismissal of his lawsuit, Senator Corman has filed yet another amended complaint. After his first complaint the NCAA moved to dismiss and Senator Corman filed an amended complaint. The NCAA again moved to dismiss his amended complaint and Senator Corman, apparently seeking to cure deficiencies in his prior attempts, has now filed a third complaint again delaying victims of child sexual abuse nationwide from receiving needed financial support. This time, because the NCAA has made clear that Senator Corman has no right to sue, he joined the State Treasurer as a plaintiff. He also dismissed his claims against Tim White and the task force, in apparent recognition of the correctness of the NCAA position that the court lacks jurisdiction over them. In what appears to be a continued game of whack-a-mole, we will yet again ask the court to dismiss his third attempt to state a claim.”
