"Dobranski [AMSL Dean] said the school of law isn’t under investigation."
Dec. 15, 2006 - memo from Dobranski to "The Law School Community"
"Since many facts are in dispute, the ABA has understandably decided to send a "Fact Finder" to the law school to gather additional information regarding these disputed matters."
[Not under investigation? Contacts at the American Bar Association have declined comment.]
***UPDATE, 2/21 - MORE CONTRADICTIONS***

"Bernard Dobranski, the law school’s president and dean, said in an interview that its Board of Governors had decided on the move after five years of discussing its options."
[discussing the option for 5 years]
Sept. 9, 2004 - Dobranski memo to the American Bar Association
"the only decision made to this point" by the board was its September 2003 decision "to not move to the Florida campus."
"the decision of the board was not to relocate. It was not a complete and final rejection of a possible move, but one which concluded that at that time, and for the immediate future, such a move would not be appropriate. ... No discussion is planned for the foreseeable future."
[So, you were not "discussing" the move in 2004, 3 years ago?]
Jan. 30, 2006 - Naples News - Headline: "Ave Maria law not planning move to Collier campus"
" "There are currently no plans to move to Naples," said Dobranski, the school's dean. "But with that said, we will have to seriously consider it, and we will more likely be doing that sooner, rather than later." "
[will have to? will be doing? So, you were not yet considering the move in 2006, one year ago?]
