Legal Question in Education Law in New York

NYS 3020a Tenre Hearing

The district I work for has brought

me up on charges under the 3020a

education law. They claim I lied on

my application regarding my former

teaching position in Pennsylvania 10

years ago. I was also sued in civil

court by a former student who won a

partial verdict(stemming from

allegations over 10 years ago in the

state of PA) There were never any

criminal charges file\d pertaining to

this matter. Other thenh defending

against the charges, do I have any

legal recourse against my school

district at this time?

Based on the facts as you have presented them, it does not appear that you have a cause of action against the district. I suggest meeting with your union representative ASAP in order to properly defend the charges.
