Student Files Lawsuit Against Cal Lutheran University Over Lack Of In-Person Learning

LOS ANGELES (CBSLA) — A California Lutheran University student is suing the school.

Nicolas Montalvo says he and other students are owed partial reimbursement for tuition because they have been denied in-person learning due to the coronavirus.

The class-action lawsuit alleges breach of contract, unjust enrichment and theft of property.

He is asking that the university return a pro-rated portion of his tuition in relation to the amount of time when classes switched to online learning only.

Cal Lutheran has not held any in-person classes since March of last year.
