Can A University Suspend Me From Sports Before A Title IX Hearing Is Completed?

A university can indeed suspend you from sports before the Title IX hearing takes place. While it may seem like a drastic step, it is possible, and it does happen.

When a claimant or complainant makes a Title IX accusation, the Title IX office will issue a notice of allegations against the accused student (the respondent). Along with this notice, the Title IX office will outline what are called intermediate sanctions. These are actions that can be taken before the hearing occurs.

Halloween is a time to celebrate, but an OWI investigation can turn a night out into a serious legal matter.

Michigan drivers should understand their rights during traffic stops, the differences between sobriety and chemical testing, and the potential consequences of operating a vehicle while impaired.

Planning ahead can make all the difference. Arrange a sober ride and never assume you're safe to drive just because you've only had a couple of drinks.

If you're facing an OWI charge, understanding your legal options matters.

An important decision by the Michigan Supreme Court allows the defense to use diminished capacity to properly challenge accusations against clients with serious mental health issues.

In People v. Madison, the Court overturned People v. Carpenter, a 2001 Supreme Court case that held that Michigan’s legal-insanity statute foreclosed a defense based on diminished capacity. The Supreme Court held that the Carpenter Court erred, and ruled that the accused may present evidence of their mental illness or intellectual disability to negate specific intent, even when they are not presenting an insanity defense

This decision is an important safeguard when defending clients with serious mental health issues.

If you or a loved one with serious mental health issues has been charged with a crime, the experienced criminal defense attorneys at Satawa Law can help protect your rights and evaluate whether a diminished capacity defense can be used to your benefit.

Your Ring camera. Your smartwatch. Even your car.

Everyday technology can create a digital trail that may become evidence in a criminal investigation.

But just because technology creates the evidence doesn’t mean police can access it without limits.

The Fourth Amendment protects against unreasonable searches and seizures. When police obtain digital information from your devices, vehicles, cameras, or other technology, how that information was obtained matters.

Was there a warrant? Was one required? Did an exception apply?

Swipe through to learn more about the technology that could be creating evidence and why your rights still matter.
