Remember, the Indiana Court of Appeals will be holding court in the Ivy Hall auditorium at 1:00 on Tuesday, February 16. The court will be hearing the case of IHSAA v. Cade:
During a February 2015 boys varsity basketball game between Griffith
High School and Hammond High School, an on-court fight broke out
involving players, students, coaches, and parents. The Commissioner of
the Indiana High School Athletic Association ("IHSAA") sanctioned both
schools as a result. The sanctions included canceling the remainder of
the schools' seasons, suspending them from participation in the state
tournament, and imposing probation for the 2015-16 school year, as well
as educational requirements for each coach and athlete. Both schools
appealed the Commissioner's decisions to the IHSAA's Review Committee,
which upheld the decisions. The schools then sought a preliminary
injunction in court. Following a hearing, the trial court preliminarily
enjoined the IHSAA from enforcing its suspension of the schools from
participating in the state tournament. The IHSAA brings this
interlocutory appeal, contending the trial court erred in granting
injunctive relief.
Paralegal Society members will have the opportunity to assist our visitors in feeling at home and then to have lunch with the judges prior to the oral argument. Everyone is welcome at the oral argument.

Feel free to comment--but all comments will be reviewed by me before they get posted. I will not post anything scurrilous about Ivy Tech students, faculty, or staff, or about members of the local community. Truth is not a defense. This just isn't going to be that kind of blog.
