Rick Karcher has been retained as an expert witness in the case of James Paxton v. University of Kentucky on behalf of the plaintiff, a senior baseball player at UK whose eligibility is being threatened for not talking to the NCAA in connection with its investigation of possible communications between an agent allegedly working on his behalf and a professional baseball club based upon an ambiguous statement of a club representative in a media article.  The plaintiff was selected last June in the supplemental first round of the MLB draft and decided to return to school for his senior year.

How to help Haiti: Volunteer, donation opportunities available

 

As many of us are saddened by watching the reports from Haiti,  the school encourages the entire Florida Coastal Community to give consideration to providing assistance in some way to those impacted by this horrible situation.  We have been in communication with the Red Cross and Mission Harvest of America here in Jacksonville.  We have learned that Mission Harvest is coordinating the local effort to provide relief.
