This rule needs to change. If a public school kid moves out of district, they can't stay in the same school.
So why should private school kids who move out of district keep eligibility?
This is one of the few legit complaints the publics have.

That’s what I did in Metairie the year I moved to Chalmette… we moved in November but I stayed going to my middle school in Metairie because we had family there

Word on the street is all clear and no sanctions.

Based on what I heard from the hearing, it had nothing to do with money and everything to do with the LHSAA’s inability to conduct an actual investigation.

They played the not enough evidence card.

So does that mean it’s over or LHSAA just has to conduct more of an investigation?

I have a meeting with my source in a bit, but I would assume it means Randy is in the clear.

We heard two different things

That's fair. I haven't had a phone conversation yet. Just a couple word text.

I basically heard that they were so many due process problems with the investigation that the judge just threw everything out and is not going to let the LHSAA bring it to the Executive Committee.
Posted on 1/18/24 at 5:23 pm to Antonio Moss
Makes sense. I'll find out exactly what happened in a couple hours.
Edit: You're right. The Nola.com article says they weren't given due process and they upheld the injunction until a proper hearing can take place. We'll see what my guy says.

But I heard they had a rock solid source with receipts
Didn’t know a judge could interfere in a private organization’s operations like that

The article says that the school wasn't informed of the investigation until they were handed punishment. No due process. So now they get a new hearing date.

Which only happens if you have enough money to take it to court.
Also sounds like a technicality, no?

Barial said the LHSAA violated Livingston’s 14th Amendment right to due process when it suspended him without a chance to appeal.
Since when did the 14th amendment apply to a private member-based organization?

Aaaaaannnnddddd... an Orleans Parish Civil Court judge just ripped off the entire top of Pandora's Box.
This is WILD and if allowed to stand will have far-reaching consequences.
quote:
Newman head of school Dale Smith said the LHSAA did not notify the school it was being investigated for possible violations before suspending Livingston on Dec. 14. LHSAA handbook rule 2.1.3 says the school principal “shall be required to appear before the LHSAA Executive Committee and the Executive Director to answer the allegations against his/her school.”
I always thought the process was a punishment was issued by the Exec Director, and then there is the option for an appeal to the Executive Committee. This seems to be how they have handled punishments in the past.
I don't ever remember a time where there was a hearing before the Exec Committee before a decision was made... it was always on appeal when the Exec Committee got involved.
Did the attorneys find that LHSAA isn't following their own policies? IF so... just about every punishment that LHSAA has handed out has a problem.
Again... money. Without the money to hire attorneys to fight and dig into this... none of this happens.

LHSAA has been pretty toothless the last few years.
If this stands, they may as well close the doors and reopen as a brand new organization.

Just because she says it, doesn’t mean it’s so
The LHSAA being a private organization has been litigated and settled

It is a voluntary membership organization on top of that.
If a school doesn’t want to be in the LHSAA, they can join the MPSAA or form a new iteration of LISA.

Either the LHSAA appeals this, or just remove the rulebook and let schools do whatever they want.
I think this gets slapped back by the court of appeals, but who knows how long that takes.
