MSU sent the Michigan House of Representatives more than 1,300 pages of documents about ex-MSU and USA Gymnastics doctor Larry Nassar on Feb. 14.

The House has an open inquiry into complaints filed to MSU in 2014-17 against Nassar.

State representatives Klint Kesto and Kim LaSata made a request for the documents Jan. 25. MSU was granted an extension on Feb. 9.

"The information we received today is another strong step toward the kind of accountability and transparency we expect from Michigan State University,” LaSata said in a press release. “We will review the documents to see how MSU handled the complaints, and then take appropriate measures based on our findings.”
