Washington State defensive lineman Robert Barber has been granted a stay of his suspension and will be allowed to return to the classroom and football field as the Whitman County Superior Court fully reviews his petition against Washington State, Whitman County Judge David Frazier announced Wednesday morning in Colfax.
The stay ruling came in response to a petition filed by Barber and his attorney Stephen Graham asking the court to overturn the suspension imposed on Barber by WSU’s student conduct board for the assault he allegedly committed at a party in July that left another WSU student with a concussion.
