United States Third Circuit
M.R.; J.R., Parents of Minor Child E.R. v. Ridley School District, 16-2465
Reversing the District Court's denial of attorney fees in the case of parents who unsuccessfully challenged a school district's proposed educational placement for their child and later obtained a court order requiring the school district to reimburse them for the costs of the child's placement under the 'stay put provision' where the child was permitted to remain during the pending proceedings because court awarded relief, including the stay put provision, confers prevailing party status entitling them to attorney fees.
