Posted: Monday, September 17th, 2007 at 7:02 am
A lawsuit that was filed by a former student from Jonathan Law High has been dismissed by a Superior Court judge. The lawsuit was filed against educational officials from Milford, and the former student claimed that she had been sexually exploited by a basketball coach.
The name of the plaintiff in the case was withheld, but according to her lawsuit she had a three year sexual relationship with the coach. The plaintiff is age nineteen and the coach, Robert Dulin, is forty-eight years old.
The lawsuit alleges that the long-term affair was known about by officials, and had been ongoing for several years. The woman claimed that former Superintendent Greg A. Firn and guidance counselor Suzanne Meyer-Farrell did not report their knowledge of the affair between the coach and the student.
After the case was dismissed an attorney for the city stated: “This is complete vindication for the municipal officials, who never should have been sued in the first place.” The coach was not named in the lawsuit but is awaiting criminal charges relating to the alleged affair.
