Of course he has a right to his day in court...but I think most people would spare themselves the expense of hiring a lawyer to represent them in court if they knew they'd lose. I just don't think it's a good idea for the chapter to handle this internally; it's best they seek next steps from an authority on the national fraternity and legal issues.
