CCSF Accreditation case goes to trial.



SAN FRANCISCO (CBS SF) — A San Francisco Superior Court judge decided Friday that a lawsuit over whether City College of San Francisco wrongly faced the loss of its accreditation by a regional accrediting commission will proceed to trial next month.
The lawsuit, filed in August 2013 by San FranciscoCity Attorney Dennis Herrera, claims the Novato-based Accrediting Commission for Community and Junior Colleges treated City College unfairly during the accreditation review process.
Following a cross-motion hearing for summary judgment from Deputy City Attorney Thomas Lakritz, as well as Andrew Sclar, an attorney for ACCJC earlier this month, San Francisco Superior Court Judge Curtis Karnow denied both motions.
The judge ruled that the ACCJC is subject to provisions of state law prohibiting unlawful and unfair acts by businesses and private associations.
