Teachers seek injunction over Mt Anthony letters of intent
Mt Anthony Union High School teachers have filed for a declaratory judgment on the binding effect of June letters of intent, seeking to prevent the school board from hiring replacements as the case heads into a preliminary hearing before Superior Judge Robert W. Larrow. The suit, led by attorney John H. Williams II, argues the board’s unilateral contract terms and threatened job losses threaten the school’s educational program and taxpayers, with a full hearing likely after the Sept. 7 start.
