A suit filed last week says someone hacked the email of the dean of Atlanta’s John Marshall Law School.

The suit says the hacker obtained and circulated a confidential report about a “shouting match” last year between an associate and assistant dean, according to the Daily Report (sub. req.). The report was distributed to one or members of the school’s board, according to the complaint.

The suit says the IP address of the hacker is associated with a local law firm, the Atlanta Law Group, where a former John Marshall professor is a principal.
