Judge Dismisses Lawsuit Against Former California Coach
📍 Multiple·Wednesday, August 12, 2026·FridayNightPulse Editorial
A California judge has dismissed a lawsuit against former Davidson High School football coach Fred Riley and others, citing 'hazing' allegations. The lawsuit was filed in July 2026, but the details of the allegations and the dismissal are not specified. The California Interscholastic Federation (CIF) oversees high school athletics in the state. As the pre-season for the 2026 season begins, this news may have implications for the coaching staff at Davidson High School. The CIF will continue to monitor the situation and ensure compliance with their rules and regulations. The dismissal of the lawsuit does not necessarily mean the allegations were unfounded, but rather that the court did not find sufficient evidence to proceed with the case.
