The Alabama Supreme Court has upheld a lower court’s decision to dismiss a lawsuit against Alabama A&M University by Robert R. Jennings, who was fired as its president in 2008. According to The Huntsville Times, the Supreme Court decided unanimously today not to review a circuit-court judge’s 2009 ruling to throw out the case. Mr. Jennings was fired for what the university’s board said was a failure to follow procedure. In his lawsuit, Mr. Jennings denied the allegations and said the board had acted illegally in dismissing him. The Supreme Court did not issue a written decision.
