Ex-Sherron Moore aide is suing University of Michigan, claims school is hiding public records
A FOIA lawsuit accuses the University of Michigan of hiding $12 million Jenner & Block investigation findings tied to the Sherrone Moore scandal.
Paige Shriver, an ex-aide of former University of Michigan head football coach, Sherron Moore, is suing the school, claiming the university is willfully withholding records relating to the investigation of the scandal.
Shriver and her legal team filed the suit Wednesday, accusing the university of intentionally violating the Michigan Freedom of Information Act, a law designed to help people find and review public records.
The legal team is accusing school officials of breaking the law by not providing records related to the investigation conducted by a private law firm, Jenner & Block, who were hired in the aftermath of the alleged scandal and relationship between Moore and Shriver.
Attorney Andrew M. Stroth released a statement outlining the details of the suit.
"The lawsuit filed today demands transparency and accountability from the University of Michigan, President Grasso and the Board of Regents," Stroth said. "This public university paid Jenner & Block $12 million to investigate the Sherrone Moore scandal and the abuse, Title IX and Title VII violations within the athletic department and Schembechler Hall, yet now refuses to release the investigation's findings. It was important for our client to file this initial FOIA lawsuit to ensure the truth and facts come out."
OutKick and Fox News have reached out to both the University of Michigan's public affairs office as well as the athletic department for comment, but have received no response.
SHERRONE MOORE'S ALLEGED MISTRESS RIPS SENTENCE THAT KEPT FORMER MICHIGAN COACH OUT OF JAIL
It would appear as though we have only seen the beginning of what is sure to be a long and drawn-out legal battle, with this new lawsuit being just the latest twist in the saga.
Michigan fired Moore in December 2025 after an investigation uncovered "a situation that transpired within and outside the football building."
Shortly after that, Moore was arrested on charges of assault, but avoided jail time and was sentenced to probation back in April.
