An appeal follows the process after a decision has been made. If you’re saying the school did not follow its own procedures for student misconduct, then again, the expelled student has grounds for a lawsuit.

I can’t stop what? Explaining due process to you? If his family found Yale’s institutional procedures for misconduct were unfair, they can sue the institution on those grounds. All we know is that Yale followed their own process for student misconduct.

We know that he presented his case, a decision was made, he appealed the decision, but did not meet the criteria for an appeal.

All we know is that he was afforded the chance to present his case to the University, and that the only public comments about the case have been made by his father.

Neither do you; if you do indeed have the document, we can go through it together to see if he has grounds for an appeal.

You’re a lawyer and you don’t understand the difference between meeting the criteria for an appeal and being able to present your case?

Big Deal doesn’t seem to know the difference between meeting the grounds for an appeal and being allowed to present your case.

What does that have to do with the appeals process, either in a criminal justice or university context?

It appears that the student did not meet the acceptance criteria for grounds for an appeal. He was allowed to present his case. Appeals get denied in the criminal justice system too.

example: students at local university were expelled for trespassing in a closed lab. they could have also been prosecuted or cited in the criminal justice system, but they weren’t.

The university can find that the student violated university conduct rules independent of a criminal investigation.

His expulsion wasn’t in the public eye until his father made it public.

none. See: Roethlisberger, Winston, Bryant, etc.

Only Rowling should profit from Native American stories, right?

I’ma POC who supports Sanders. What do you think of Ta-Nehisi Coates, Michelle Alexander, Erica Garner, Nina Turner, and Shaun King’s support for Sanders?

Not that good!

Agree with you that Sanders is a better candidate, not ideal, nothing I’ve said contradicts that.

I also think it’s ridiculous for commenters on this site to give Clinton a pass here. She literally directly referenced a racially charged supposition that Obama might be assassinated as a black presidential candidate in…

He’s spoken about it in WRT the criminal justice system and police abuse, which impacts POC communities across demographics.

Next thing you’ll tell me what my interests are.
