2014 WL 2767590 (5th Circuit Court of Appeals)
In June of this year, the 5th Circuit Court of Appeal determined that Title IX applies student on student, same sex, harassment. As more and more of these cases are being litigated, this case summary will provide you with the analysis applied to courts on why Title IX applies to this sort of bullying. Finally, the recent case law makes clear that courts and parents are less willing to take a laissez-faire attitude in light of these bullying incidents.
