Summary Judgment

Cynthia Lawrence and Blaze Van Dine won a Motion for Summary Adjudication in Federal Court when the Court ruled that claims under the Unruh Act did apply to a NonPublic School.

The Verdict

The Court agreed with SLB that when dealing with students, a NonPublic School does not act as a business because it does not charge students tuition. Plaintiff’s often attempt to plead a violation of the Unruh Act in an attempt to avail themselves of statutory damages, punitive damages and attorney’s fees and costs. This ruling is great precedent for Nonpublic schools.
