Judge dismisses former president's claims against Louisiana College

The former president of the private Baptist school in Pineville had sued claiming breach of contract, wrongful termination and detrimental reliance, all of which were dismissed in a judgment filed Oct. 13 in the 9th Judicial District Court in Alexandria.

His claims for attorney's fees also were denied, and Aguillard owes the college $17,877.77 to cover its arbitration expenses, according to the judgment signed by Judge Monique Rauls.

Aguillard, who led the college from 2005 to 2014, filed a petition for damages in September 2016 through Alexandria attorney Koby D. Boyett against the school, its current President Rick Brewer, a private investigator and an insurance underwriting company.
