(AP) — A judge has limited the arguments Creighton University can make in the upcoming trial of a lawsuit by a man who says the university’s medical school discriminated against him because he is deaf.

Jury trial is set to begin Aug. 20 in federal court.

The trial comes after the U.S. 8th Circuit Court of Appeals in March said a jury should be allowed to decide whether Creighton discriminated against Michael Argenyi (ar-GEN’-ee). Argenyi was accepted to Creighton’s medical school after disclosing that he was hearing-impaired and requesting accommodations for his disability. He sued in 2009 after his requests for interpreters were refused.

On Friday, a judge barred Creighton from arguing that accommodating Argenyi’s requests would fundamentally alter medical school curriculum or would pose a threat to the safety of patients.

PIERCE, Neb. (AP) — Pierce County sheriff’s officials have identified a Norfolk man killed in a crash in northeast Nebraska.

Sheriff Rick Eberhardt says 59-year old John Malmberg died from his injuries in the Tuesday crash northeast of Pierce.

Authorities say a southbound sport utility vehicle driven by 27-year-old Erick Weisz, also from Norfolk, failed to stop at an intersection and collided with Malmberg’s eastbound vehicle.

Malmberg was flown to Mercy Hospital in Sioux City, Iowa, where he was pronounced dead. Weisz was taken to Faith Regional Hospital in Norfolk, where he was treated and released. A passenger in Weisz’s vehicle was treated and released at the scene.

The accident is still under investigation.

(AP) — An aide says former President George W. Bush is “doing great” while recovering from a heart procedure at a Dallas hospital and should be going home soon.

Spokesman Freddy Ford says the 43rd president is expected to be discharged Wednesday. He would not give a specific time.

Doctors at Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital on Tuesday inserted a stent to help prop open an artery. The blockage was discovered Monday during Bush’s annual physical at a clinic in Dallas, where he lives.

Ford says the 67-year-old former president is expected to resume his normal schedule by Thursday.

Bush has a reputation as a fitness buff and is known to enjoy jogging, riding bicycles and doing other exercise to keep in shape.

(AP) — A 59-year-old Norfolk man has died after a collision in northeast Nebraska.

The Pierce County Sheriff’s Office says the accident occurred around 12:30 p.m. Tuesday about 7½ miles northeast of Pierce.

Authorities say a southbound sport utility vehicle driven by 27-year-old Erick Weisz, also from Norfolk, collided with an eastbound vehicle at the intersection of Nebraska Highway 98 and 557th Avenue.

The accident is being investigated.

(AP) — The top county prosecutor says the shooting of an Omaha man at a party may have been justified.

Twenty-eight-year-old Kevin McIntyre died Sunday night at an Omaha hospital after he and his twin brother, Branden, were shot earlier in the evening. Branden McIntyre was treated at another hospital and released.

Douglas County Attorney Don Kleine said on Tuesday that, “preliminarily, it appears the shooting was justified.” But Kleine also said the investigation was continuing.

Kleine says the shooter talked to investigators on Sunday and has been released. Kleine would not disclose the man’s name and would not elaborate on the circumstances that led to the shooting.

(AP) — A judge says jurors in the trial of the suspect in the Colorado theater shooting last year will be allowed to ask questions of witnesses.

Defense attorneys for James Holmes had objected to jurors asking questions.

However Judge Carlos A. Samour Jr. ruled Tuesday that he would allow written questions to be submitted, with safeguards to defend against objectionable questions and to protect Holmes’ rights. For instance, attorneys for both sides will be consulted before a question is asked, and they can object to questions outside the presence of jurors and the witness.

Holmes has pleaded not guilty by reason of insanity to more than 160 counts including murder and attempted murder. He is accused of killing 12 people and injuring 70 at an Aurora movie theater July 20, 2012.

(AP) — The doctor of a 14-year-old Ohio girl who had cerebral palsy and weighed 28 pounds when she died has been sentenced to six months in jail and a year’s probation on three counts of failing to report child abuse or neglect.

Montgomery County’s prosecutor says 51-year-old Margaret Edwards was sentenced Tuesday in Dayton. The Trotwood resident had pleaded no contest to the charges in patient Makayla Norman’s 2011 death and permanently surrendered her medical license. She faced a possible sentence of up to 18 months.

Messages left for Edwards’ attorney were not immediately returned.

Norman died from nutritional and medical neglect complicated by her chronic condition.

Norman’s mother and a nurse were convicted of involuntary manslaughter and other charges. Two other nurses were convicted of failing to provide for a functionally impaired person.

(AP) — A woman who used information about her boyfriend’s ex-wife for a bogus posting on a bondage sex dating website has been given two years of probation in Nebraska.

29-year-old Kelley Haag was sentenced Monday. She’d pleaded no contest to a misdemeanor stalking charge after prosecutors lowered the charge from felony terroristic threats.

Haag was living in Waverly when the crime occurred last fall but now lives near Minneapolis.

Police say a 33-year-old Lincoln woman reported that her name, picture and personal and professional information had been placed by someone else on a dating site devoted to people looking for bondage and rough sex. She became frightened when she got a call from a man who’d seen the posting.

Investigators traced the posting to Haag.

(AP) — A 17-year-old Omaha teen has admitted killing his 16-year-old ex-girlfriend as part of a deal with prosecutors.

The teen pleaded guilty Tuesday to second-degree murder in the May 2012 death of Melanie Koontz. Previously, he had been charged with first-degree murder and using a weapon to commit the crime.

Koontz’ body was found in an Omaha creek. Prosecutors say she had been strangled.

The boy will be evaluated by a psychologist before he is sentences on Nov. 6. He faces 20 years to life in prison.

The Associated Press generally doesn’t identify juveniles accused of a crime.
