Yale Convinced Her To Report Him For Sexual Assault. The School Just Settled With The Accused Student.

It’s been three years since former Yale University basketball captain Jack Montague filed a lawsuit against the university for denying him due process rights and a fair investigation into allegations of sexual assault. On Monday, Montague and Yale reached a settlement to avoid going to trial.

Each side will “bear its own costs and fees,” suggesting the settlement did not include an admission of responsibility from Yale. The fact that the settlement came the day pretrial memos were due suggests Yale wanted to avoid the trial. Duke University has done the same thing on multiple occasions — settle the day before the trial.
