Austin Roy Clark v. Neeli Bendapudi, et al.

This case involves the expulsion of a medical student from the University of Louisville School of Medicine in retaliation for his expression and support of conservative, Christian, “pro-life” views and whether the trial court erred in dismissing Petitioner’s complaint for failure to state a claim. The claims of Petitioner are matters of national importance given the Court’s recent ruling in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, 597 U.S. ____ (2022) and the remedies available to proChristian, pro-life individuals who maintain views on abortion contrary to those of school administrators and faculty members and who suffer maltreatment or retaliation as a result.
