[QUOTE="--Eleanor--, post: 45633, member: 3620"] Hi all: I just spotted the news that the US Supreme Court has decided the IDEA case where the issue was whether parents could represent their children rather than needing to hire a lawyer. The parents won! This is great news for those who can't afford lawyers to try to enforce our kids rights under IDEA. Here is the opinion: [url="http://www.law.cornell.edu/supct/html/05-983.ZS.html"]http://www.law.cornell.edu/supct/html/05-983.ZS.html[/url] Here's a quote: "we find nothing in the statute to indicate that when Congress required States to provide adequate instruction to a child 'at no cost to parents,' it intended that only some parents would be able to enforce that mandate."
