Apparently, if a school board in North Alabama is being sued, they hire the firm of Lanier-Ford in Huntsville to represent them...if they know what's good for them. Here's an example of one case handled by associate Taylor Brooks:
Ex parte Boaz City Board. of Education, 82 So.3d 660 (Ala. 2011). A kindergarten teacher, who allegedly was struck with paddle by a superintendent, brought action against the school board, the board’s members, and the superintendent, asserting claims of defamation and assault and battery. The Alabama Supreme Court ruled in favor of the school board and school board members, finding that the school board and board members were entitled to absolute immunity under the Alabama Constitution.
Comforting to know that a school superintendent has the right to hit a teacher with a paddle, isn't it? We notice this is the Boaz system, where one of the two remaining Muscle Shoals candidates is from.
Brooks will be helping in the selection of the grand prize winner on Monday. Is that due to Muscle Shoals not having a single decent attorney or the board thinking a law suit is a possibility?
Our psychic prediction is that Chad O.G. Holden will be the hands down winner. Interested parties, or those simply wanting a mild chuckle, should make a point to catch the virtual board of education meeting Monday at noon.
The True O.G. Says "Let The Good Times Roll!"
