Supreme Court declines to rule in Article 78 academic appeal
Resat Keles v. The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York
Plaintiff brought about this Article 78 case to challenge the academic and administrative standards and decisions of Columbia University. Article 78 appeals are limited to determining whether a decision is arbitrary, capricious, irrational, or in bad faith and courts have repeatedly declined involvement in the evaluation of academic performance since the educational institutions are better suited to make judgment. In this case, the Court declined to convert plaintiff’s action to an Article 78 special proceeding because his claim made past the four-month statute of limitations.
