LANSING, Mich. ( WLNS ) — An Ingham County Circuit Court judge dismissed a lawsuit filed by anti-sexual harassment and anti-rape educator Brenda Tracy against former MSU football head coach Mel Tucker.

The lawsuit was filed in October, aiming to prevent any further release of private communications like text messages involving Tracy and Tucker.

On Sept. 18 MSU Athletic Director Alan Haller sent a letter to Tucker notifying him the University intended to end his contract — valued at over $80 million — for cause related to sexual harassment allegations.

Tucker had been on unpaid suspension from his post since Sept. 10 when USA Today published a story detailing Tracy’s allegations of harassment against Tucker.

6 News reached out to Tracy and was told by her attorney she had no comment.
