Then on December 27, 2017, Aguillard again filed suit against LC, this time in the United States District Court for the Western District of Louisiana in Alexandria. He contends that LC discriminated against him for "disability" since his heart attack and quadruple by-pass surgery in 2011. When Aguillard left the college presidency, he cited health issues as a factor. After a year as president emeritus, he became a tenured faculty member in the LC graduate teacher education program. Aguillard also claims religious discrimination because he contends that his permanent successor, Rick Brewer, is a Calvinist, a claim that Brewer denies. Aguillard is seeking a jury trial and "all of the relief" to which he claims he is owed, including back-pay and front-pay. The presiding judge in the suit, James T. Trimble, was assigned after Dee D. Drell recused himself.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.thetowntalk.com/story/news/local/education/2018/01/04/former-lc-president-suing-college-again/1001003001/|title=Former LC president suing college again|author=Leigh Guidry|publisher=''The Alexandria Town Talk''|date=January 4, 2018|accessdate=February 5, 2018}}</ref>
