Lawyers for the University of Minnesota are arguing against a five-thousand dollar payout in a discrimination suit filed by a former golf coach two years ago. Kathryn Brenny sued the U amid claims that former golf director John Harris stripped her of her duties after he discovered she is a lesbian. University officials say Brenny knew the limits of the position when she accepted it. The U-of-M was ordered last month to pay the five-thousand in legal fees for wiping the data from Harris' school-issued cell-phone. The lawyer has argued that there is no proof that the phone contained messages relevant to the case. (MNN)
