Disabled by insights, grandparent gets amendment chance
Technorati Profile
A forthcoming California Special Education Alert (July 1, 2006) says that a grandparent of an 11-year-old student with an articulation disorder who was allegedly repeatedly harassed and assaulted by other students, has got another chance to amend discrimination complaint. The complaints in this case (Walden v. Moffett, 45 IDELR 219) are of the nature of race and disability discrimination
The student’s grandparent has claimed the district's failure to protect him constituted a violation of his rights under the IDEA and Title IV of the Civil Rights Act. Apparently, the court has found very ambiguous the action or inaction on part of the district that’s being alleged. Hence the grandparent has been asked to first, a) exhaust IDEA’s administrative remedies, and to b) specify what precise roles of the district were being questioned.
