A lawsuit filed in Northern California federal court by former high school football player Dominik Calhoun against the California Interscholastic Federation was dismissed for a second time on Thursday after a hearing held by Magistrate Judge Laurel Beeler, who granted an 84 motion.
The judge will allow the plaintiff to file an amended complaint by Sept. 10. There’s also the chance to appeal.
Calhoun has been challenging CIF rules on high school transfers and NIL.
The CIF had stopped considering possible changes in several policies, including transfers, while the lawsuit played out.
The question is whether discussions will resume about possible transfer reforms that were discussed in April of 2025.
