Conduct Appeals

Per the UofL Code of Student Conduct, a respondent may appeal a conduct hearing decision within ten (10) business days after the issuance of the conduct hearing decision letter. 

Purpose Of Appeals
The purpose of an appeal is not to provide a second conduct hearing for the case. The
Respondent and/or the Complainant may request an appeal for one or all of the following
reasons:

• Whether the conduct hearing was conducted fairly and in accordance with the procedures outlined in this Code of Student Conduct;
• Whether there was sufficient evidence presented at the conduct hearing to establish, by a preponderance of the evidence, that a violation of the prohibited conduct occurred;
• Whether the sanction(s) imposed was appropriate;
• Whether there is new information that was not known to the person requesting the review at the time of the conduct hearing and that, if presented at the conduct hearing, would more likely than not have altered the conduct hearing decision.
