March 25, 2016As Cal Football Settles Family Lawsuit Over Ted Agu’s Wrongful Death, Head Coach Sonny Dykes and Conditioning Coach Damon Harrington Must Be Fired
March 25, 2016
The parties in the Ted Agu / University of California lawsuit have filed a conditional notice of settlement. An April court date, previously set for the start of a jury trial, is now scheduled as a final settlement hearing, according to the new March 24 filing in Alameda County Superior Court.
