Defense of College Student Against Charges of Sexual Misconduct
Apr 14, 2017OUTCOME: No formal charges were brought, no formal hearing was held, and the the school found there was insufficent evidence to proceed with charges.
University opened an informal investigation of a male student based on a female student's claim that he engaged in non-consensual sexual intercourse with her. The student sought counsel from Duffy Law ... immediately upon getting notice of the charge by the school, and we were able to advise the student on strategy. He entered the school's disciplinary proceedings system and faced sanctions up to expulsion. Our investigator identified witnesses and uncovered digital evidence corroborating our client's claims of innocence. We prepared him for his interview with the school's various fact-finders, investigators, and administrators, and attended key interviews with him.
