UC appeals after judge finds sexual misconduct investigation unfair

University of California regents have appealed a court ruling that found UC San Diego was unfair to a student who had been suspended over allegations of sexual misconduct.

The case involved an unidentified male student who has continued to attend classes but faced a suspension of one year and one quarter after UC San Diego investigators found he had violated the university's student sex offense policy by making unwanted, physical advances toward another student.

In July, San Diego County Superior Court Judge Joel Pressman reversed the school's suspension order and ruled a UC San Diego board's disciplinary action against the student was unfair and unsupported by evidence.
