Before the decision, well below the 4.1% base rate, with no standout signals pointing toward a grant.
Question presented
Whether the confidential complaint filed by Petitioner with the University of Texas at Arlington (UTA) Equal Opportunity Services (EOS) office is absolutely privileged and immune from civil action? Whether the Majority prohibited Petitioner's constitutional right to petition by misapplying the TCPA's two-step process resulting in an Opinion that is the antithesis of the Texas legislature's express stated purpose for enacting it? Whether the Majority erred in holding Petitioner negligent in filing the confidential UTA EOS complaint?
