New York Court of Appeals

In the Matter of Susan M. v. New York Law School, Appellant-Respondent

June 14, 199076 N.Y.2d 241

Summary

The New York Court of Appeals held that the petitioner’s challenge to her academic dismissal did not state a judicially cognizable claim because academic grading decisions are beyond the scope of judicial review absent bad faith or constitutional violation, and therefore affirmed the dismissal of the petition in its entirety.
