That's my opinion. Story in today's San Francisco Chronicle: "S.F. school district won't try to recoup $125,000 in legal costs from Alison Collins' lawsuit against the district" San Francisco’s school district won’t recoup the money spent to fight the $87 million lawsuit filed by school board member Alison Collins against the district and fellow board members, even though the case was tossed out by a federal judge before a first hearing. The school board decided not to pursue legal costs, which reached $125,000 in attorney fees and other expenses, saying it could cost additional district funds to try and recoup the money, officials said. Collins was required to recuse herself from the decision. It was unclear how many board members ultimately opted in [at] a recent closed session to end the case and move on without seeking redress. The cost of the Collins lawsuit will be added to the district’s mounting budget deficit, which is expected to reach about $112 million next year and likely require cuts to staffing and programs. In a strongly worded statement, Judge Haywood Gilliam Jr. of the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California said Collins’s claims had no merit. "While the Court is required to construe Plaintiff’s allegations in the light most favorable to her, the Court cannot find that this unsupported legal conclusion is adequate to plead an ongoing violation of federal law.” "So very difficult a matter is it to trace and find out the truth of anything by history." -- Plutarch |
