After applying to 150 firms without getting an attorney job, law graduate Anna Alaburda sued the school for fraud. The San Diego Union-Tribune reported that the 37-year-old graduate of the Thomas Jefferson School of Law loses her lawsuit against her school. She was seeking $92,192 in lost income and $32,475 in tuition and fees reimbursement. Jurors ruled 9-3 in favor of the school and “rejected the claim that she based her enrollment decision on misleading information, and one juror said he also was influenced by Alaburda’s decision to turn down a law firm’s job offer in 2008.” (sandiegouniontribune.com)
