Judge orders Oxford schools to comply with depositions in civil suit over shootings

PONTIAC, Mich. – An Oakland Circuit judge ordered the attorney for the Oxford School District Wednesday to comply with a request for depositions in a civil lawsuit stemming from the Nov. 30 high school shooting in which four students died and seven others were wounded.

Judge Rae Lee Chabot had previously ordered attorneys into mediation on the issues but after they reported being unable to resolve matters, she told attorneys they have 60 days to comply with depositions from six school employees: Pam Parker Fine, Shawn Hopkins, Nicholas Ejak, Jacquelyn Kubina, Becky Morgan and Allison Karpinski.

Failure to comply would put the school district’s attorney at risk of being in contempt of her initial court order of June 23 that attorneys for families of victims were entitled to ask them questions outside of court.
