Texas Wesleyan University, its president and Texas A&M University School of Law have asked a federal court to dismiss a proposed class action brought by Texas Wesleyan University School of Law graduates.
In two separate filings, the schools asked the court to dismiss the case brought by 32 Wesleyan graduates who argue that they were disavowed as alumni by Texas A&M after it acquired Texas Wesleyan University School of Law in 2013. The graduates of the Fort Worth school sued Texas A&M’s law school, dean Andrew Morriss, Texas Wesleyan University and Texas Wesleyan’s president, Frederick Slabach, in the Northern District of Texas in August.
