Consequences of a Title IX Finding

A Title IX or student conduct finding in Texas can bring serious and lasting consequences, including:

  • Suspension or expulsion from school
  • Loss of scholarships or financial aid
  • Removal from campus housing
  • Removal from athletics, ROTC, or student groups
  • A transcript notation under Texas Education Code §51.9364
  • A delayed or withheld degree
  • Problems with graduate school or job applications
  • Possible criminal charges under the Texas Penal Code

Many allegations also lead to a police investigation. Sexual assault under Texas Penal Code §22.011 is generally a second-degree felony, and statements made in a campus case can be used against you.

These cases move fast, and what you say early matters. Don’t wait. Contact Shane Phelps Law today for your free, confidential consultation.
