Andrew Shirvell Must Answer Questions About His Law School

Specifically, in the stalking and defamation case brought by Chris Armstrong against Andrew Shirvell, a federal magistrate yesterday ordered Shirvell to answer written questions to be posed by Armstrong's attorney, Deb Gordon, about whether Ave Maria Law School sent a memo to the State Bar about Shirvell. Gordon says that she believes the school filed a "several page memo" addressing concerns about Shirvell's conduct as a law student. According to the story in the Detroit Free Press, the ruling says that Shirvell's answers are to be confidential unless they are used in the litigation. Above the Law, which is following the case closely, summarizes the suit and countersuit.
