: : Referral wanted: Reverse Discrimination Lawyer

: : I am looking for a good lawyer, preferably in the Atlanta area, and possibly
: : some good advice.

: Why don't you hold tight and delay contacting a lawyer until the school
: has had an opportunity to hear your friend's appeal. Its entirely possible
: that the school will side with your friend. Only if the school disagrees
: with your friend should you contact a lawyer because the cost may be high.


Thanks for the advice, but here are a bit of the circumstances. Preious railroad
jobs by this same teacher met with no opposition from the school administration
because this teacher has sued the school successfulkly in the past and won. Everyone
in the school administration is now scared to mess with her.

Second, since the time I posted this, my friend has appealed the case and met with
the appeal board. She was denied appeal because they don't understand how or why
the teacher would be inclined to lie. What's the motivation is what they ask. They
don't feel that being a mean-spirited, vindictive bigot is sufficient motivation.

It may be a moot point, in any case, because my friend is now taking the advice
of her psychiatrist and learning to deal with her feelings of helplessness and
inferiority. She doesn't have the strength to fight for justice. I think if
someone had the facts on how this teacher operates a good case could be made
for discrimination, however. (BTW, it is discrimination, not reverse discrimination,
as someone pointed out, because this black teacher seems to fail only attractive
white females.
