Update: Goncalves et al v. Washington State University

Here we provide pure opinions, comments, and speculation concerning the current status of the high-profile federal civil lawsuit styled as Goncalves et al. vs. Washington State University. The same has been proceeding since late January 2026 in federal court. The Plaintiffs are the personal representatives of the estates of four students who were catastrophically lost on November 13, 2022 at 1122 King Road in Moscow, Idaho. Here we discuss an important deadline coming up in July regarding the amendment of pleadings. Everything here represents the pure opinion, commentary, speculation and rhetorical questions per the First Amendment to the United States Constitution which states:Amendment I: Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.It is codified within Section 107 of the U.S. Copyright Act, which provides that fair use of a work “for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching (including multiple copies for classroom use, scholarship, or research)” is not an infringement of copyright. All parties who are charged with crimes are considered innocent under the eyes of the law until or unless they (1) are adjudicated guilty in a court of law or (2) agree to plead guilty.#Idaho4#WSU#TitleIX#FreeSpeech
