First Circuit -- Santiago v. Commonwealth of Puerto Rico

Summary judgment against claim alleging misconduct by private school bus company upheld.

Private school bus company not performing a state function, as there are such things as private schools, and the greater includes the lesser.

Private company doesn't qualify as one subject to extensive regulations, as the regulations didn't drive (sorry) the conduct.

Insufficient entanglement for nexus theory of S1983 jurisdiction.

Title IX claim TKO'd as there was no appropriate gov't actor with actual knowledge.
