   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  22-1814
   U.S. District Court for the District of Nebraska - Omaha   
   [PUBLISHED] [Erickson, Author, with Kelly and Stras, Circuit Judges] 
   Civil case - Title IX. With respect to plaintiff's Title IX deliberate 
   indifference claim, viewing the evidence in a light most favorable to the 
   jury's verdict, the uncontradicted evidence demonstrates that the school 
   acted promptly upon learning of the assault on plaintiff; the steps it 
   took were prompt, extensive, substantive, directed to protect and assist 
   plaintiff, and not clearly unreasonable given the circumstances known to 
   the school; even if the evidence was somehow sufficient to constitute 
   deliberate indifference, the evidence fell short of establishing a causal 
   nexus between the school's actions and the sexual assault or harassment; 
   the judgment in favor of plaintiff is reversed with directions to enter 
   judgment in favor of the school and to vacate the award of attorneys' fees 
   to plaintiff. Judge Kelly, dissenting.
