Georgeia Kolokithas, on behalf of Jane Doe, a minor, v. Alpena Public School District and Alpena Board of Education,
October 30, 2023
Michigan Supreme Court
No. 165441

CHILD USA submitted this amicus brief in support of Plaintiff-Appellant arguing that student-on-student sexual harassment is actionable under Michigan’s Elliot-Larson Civil Rights Act (ELCRA) and that a constructive knowledge standard should apply and under which the Alpena school district should be held liable for failing to adequately address sexual harassment and thus creating a hostile environment.
