As he is a deputy city attorney, does this gentleman understand by his actions, is going to force the schools to take a second look at all after-school sports program (and not just at MPCSD) and perhaps think this is too expensive to have because of lawsuits as his?

I am not saying he is not within his rights because we don't know all the facts but why couldn't he take his negotiation skills and try to come to a peaceful conclusion instead now, all the students will have to suffer as a result. Is this man's ego so bruised that now he has to take away programs that enhances the childrens' life? Did he think about this?

Wow! This is so pathetic! Suing the PTO. How low can you go! Scoop up your damaged ego and get on with you life, Mr. Hecimovich.
