    When accuser ‘froze,’ accused student should have stopped, Yale
    argues

    An accused student is suing Yale University for concluding that
    the brief absence of a condom “during an otherwise consensual
    encounter” was sexual assault.

    “John Doe” alleges that “gender bias was a motivating factor” in
    the decision against him by Dean of the College Marvin Chun,
    which resulted in his suspension.

    He argues that the Ivy League school should have updated its
    sexual-misconduct procedures after Education Secretary Betsy
    DeVos* rescinded the Obama administration’s guidance on the
    subject in fall 2017.

    The lawsuit was filed April 25. The senior sought a temporary
    restraining order that would let him “turn in his final papers,”
    arguing that he “may have classes in common” with his accuser if
    he’s required to repeat the semester in the spring. The judge
    overseeing the case denied his motion at a Friday hearing.

    In its opposition to Doe’s motion, Yale argued that Doe knew he
    was sexually assaulting Roe when the condom fell off because she
    “froze.” That is a “very common reaction” by women who are
    sexually assaulted by a “known assailant.”

    Doe’s allegations resemble those of Jack Montague, Yale’s former
    basketball team captain, whom the school expelled on the eve of
    the team’s first appearance in the NCAA tournament since 1962.

    Both allege the university pressured their accusers to file
    formal complaints and violated their Title IX rights throughout
    the proceedings. A jury will now evaluate Montague’s due-process
    allegations.
