Winston’s lawyer, David Cornwell, has published via Twitter the conclusion of the in-house proceedings: “In sum, the preponderance of the evidence has not shown that you are responsible for ANY of the charged violations of the Code.” Cornwell has confirmed that the quote comes from the ruling in Winston’s case.

Jameis Winston has been found not responsible of violating Florida State's student conduct code in relation to a Dec. 2012 alleged sexual assault of a female FSU student.
The decision from retired Florida Supreme Court justice Major Harding comes 18 days after the Dec. 3 conclusion of a school investigative hearing. After a nearly two-year delay and intense media attention to the case, Harding was retained by FSU to conduct the hearing.
In a letter to Winston and the woman which was obtained by USA TODAY Sports, Harding wrote, "This was a complex case, and I worked hard to make sure both parties had a full and fair opportunity to present information. In sum, the preponderance of the evidence has not shown that you are responsible for any of the charge violations of the Code. Namely, I find that the evidence before me is insufficient to satisfy the burden of proof."
