In [14] Hemmer conjectures that the module of fixed points for the symmetric group Sigma(m) of a Specht module for Sigma(n) (with n > m), over a field of positive characteristic p, has a Specht series, when viewed as a En-m-module. We provide a counterexample for each prime p. The examples have the same form for p >= 5 and we treat the cases p = 3 and p = 2 separately. (C) 2015 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
