A hearing regarding the lawsuit over the closure of Ovey Comeaux High School has been recessed until Tuesday morning.Summary
The lawsuit challenging the Lafayette Parish School System's decision to close Ovey Comeaux High School has been recessed until Tuesday morning. The legal battle began when the school system cited declining enrollment and a goal to save over $2 million to justify closing the school on Mar. 12. In response, community members filed a lawsuit on Mar. 20, claiming the closure would cause irreparable harm. Judge Valarie Gotch-Garrett issued a preliminary injunction on Apr. 13, which was upheld when the Third Circuit Court denied an appeal from the school system on Apr. 27. The full hearing is now scheduled for Wednesday, Apr. 29, at the 15th Judicial District Court.
