[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous]The students parents are mow suing for $3 million.[/quote]

According to the Post, it is actually $11 million. Strangely, the lawsuit was filed in PG County. I wonder if that is where the student lives?

That would be almost perfect if the District ends up paying $11 million to a PG resident who attended a corruptly-run charter schools and was on the receiving end of this particular act, which was performed by another Maryland resident.

This is a charter school.  Why would the city be liable?  I thought charters had to self-insure.[/quote]

Isn't the Public Charter School Board also part of DC government? [b] Or is it a private organization?[/b]  As little actual power as PCSB has over individual charters, they are the governing agency, so they can definitely be sued, whether they are part of DC government or not.[/quote]
I thought it was a private organization, not positive on this assumption.  They are appointed by charter school members, not DC officials.  And it is not an elected body.  And yes, anyone can be sued.  I was just wondering if liability falls on the taxpayers of DC.  Also, there might be a finding of liability, but what are the damages.  The boy disseminated the video.
