There is such a thing as punitive damages in the law.

It does not speak about his own beliefs.
Maybe he's trying to be more "seeker friendly"
If he made an issue out of the long hair and Pentecostal church connection, lots of people would immediately point out ladies who do not comply.

Right - that would be good wisdom regardless of his personal feelings on the matter.

The school fired her, and will no doubt claim her actions were ultra vires. Unreasonable, unforeseeable, and beyond the scope of her employment, therefore the school is not culpable.

It would probably be pointless to sue the teacher for monetary damages, especially in Texas.

Whether she should be sued for revenge I guess fits a lot into ones "eye for an eye" versus grace mentality.

That's what I would argue, but if there is any kind of history that the teacher was antagonistic towards the girl then I think respondeat superior...So do you go for the bench trial or the jury if your the plaintiff?

Test for respondeat superior:


1. Was the act committed within the time and space limits of the agency?

2. Was the offense incidental to, or of the same general nature as, the responsibilities the agent is authorized to perform?

3. Was the agent motivated to any degree to benefit the principal by committing the act?


Obviously fails on 2 and 3, not to mention the teacher would be considered a quasi-governmental employee and therefore burden against school would have to higher than "normal" employer.

But good try grasshopper !!! :-)
