Hearing set in settlement of case
Editor's Note:
A state district court judge hearing a lawsuit between SMU and former owners of condominiums acquired by the University said Friday he will consider a motion for summary judgment in the case on Sept. 18.
SMU's Statement:
SMU appreciates the action of Judge Martin Hoffman in expediting a summary judgment hearing regarding the enforcement of聽the agreed-upon settlement. The University looks forward to an end to this long merry-go-round of litigation led by two plaintiffs who seem to have little regard for the educational goals of a nonprofit institution.
鈥淭hey are going after additional resources that are being used by SMU to educate students, give scholarships and serve the community,鈥� said Lisa Blue, an attorney representing SMU. 鈥淚t鈥檚 time for these extortion attempts to end.鈥�
