One of the oldest lawsuits brought by a male college student against his university alleging a violation of his due process rights has settled, nearly four years after the complaint was filed and more than five years after the alleged sexual assault.

It was late August 2015 when the male student, whom The Daily Wire will refer to as John, and his female accuser, who will be referred to as Jane, attended an off-campus party with other University of Cincinnati students. Some witnesses would later describe Jane as slurring her words and stumbling while at the party. Between midnight and 1 a.m., some of the students, including John and Jane, went to a pizza restaurant. John’s lawsuit asserts that Jane kissed him at the restaurant and also grabbed his crotch outside.
