Sherrone Moore Enters No-Contest Plea to Two Misdemeanors as Accuser Calls for U-M Action

The deal dismisses the original felony charges with sentencing set for April 14.

Overview

  • On March 6, the former Michigan head coach pleaded no contest to malicious use of a telecommunications service in a domestic context and to trespass.
  • Prosecutors agreed to drop the earlier counts, including felony third-degree home invasion as well as stalking and illegal entry.
  • The accuser, former executive assistant Paige Shiver, publicly identified herself and urged the university to take accountability, with her lawyers alleging years of exploitation linked to a power imbalance.
  • A Washtenaw County prosecutor said the evidence supports criminal behavior within an intimate-partner relationship, and jail time is not expected at sentencing next month.
  • Moore’s attorney maintains he is innocent and previously challenged the arrest warrant, while an independent review of the athletic department by Jenner & Block remains underway.
