How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- noting that “[c]ourts are divided as to whether the ‘due weight’ standard applies to administrative findings of fact in the Rehabilitation Act context”
- declining to consider argument that the parents “did not explicitly raise . . . at the due process hearing”
- rejecting the argument that, to prevail under Section 504, a plaintiff must prove not only a denial of a FAPE but also that the denial was “solely on the basis of disability”
- \Parents are correct in asserting that they can establish that [the student] was denied a benefit to which all other students were entitled simply on the basis that [the student] was disabled if they can establish a denial of a FAPE.\
