Best Answer

You can sue anyone, but there is no case to be brought for such a thing as "incompetence".

You may have a case under tort law for things like "negligence". To win that you need to show that:

(a) harm was caused

(b) the harm was caused by the board's action or inaction

(c) that the board knew or should have known such action or inaction would cause the harm and

(d) that the harm has a $ value

Or you can run for the school board yourself.

Can you sue a past employee for loss business income due to his incompetence?

Short answer, NO! Unless you can prove malice aforethought, or a conspiracy, simple incompetence is not grounds for a lawsuit against an ex-employee. If it were so, the US auto industry would not need the government to get help, they could just sue the employees making the cars of the 70s and 80s.
