Ex-high school football coach can proceed with suit against district

By Richard Binder

ADVERTISEMENTS

Football coach Marty Martin sued Clovis Unified School District two years ago in Fresno County Superior Court, claiming pressure from parents led to his firing after only one season with the Golden Eagles. Despite the efforts of the district to get the suit dismissed, Judge Donald Franson Jr. has ruled that the suit can continue, claiming there are "triable issues" regarding Martin's contract as Clovis West football coach.

One of those issues is whether or not Martin was hired as a full-time coach or to coach as an extra-duty assignment.  If he was hired full-time, as Martin claims, then he was entitled to a hearing to fight his dismissal.

The suit seeks damages for past and future lost wages and benefits; compensatory damages for emotional distress and damaged reputation; and attorneys fees.
