MEDFORD, Ore. (AP) - A federal judge has tossed out most of the claims in a lawsuit filed by the ousted director of Jefferson Public Radio in southern Oregon.
U.S. District Judge Owen Panner ruled last month that the claims by Ron Kramer lacked merit.
Kramer was fired in 2012 after 37 years at helm of the public radio station based in Ashland. He filed a lawsuit against Southern Oregon University and the Oregon University System, which oversee the station, as well as the former university president and statewide chancellor.
The Medford Mail Tribune reports (https://bit.ly/1yl4UuT ) that the judge allowed one claim to stand, an allegation that Kramer’s due process rights were violated. Former SOU President Mary Cullinan has appealed that ruling.
