United States Sixth Circuit


N.L. v. KNOX COUNTY SCHOOLS, 01-5551

Under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), alleged procedural faults did not seriously infringe a parent's opportunity to participate in an Individualized Education Program meeting. Rehabilitation Act section 504 claims are properly dismissed when IDEA claims brought under a theory of denial of free appropriate public education are also dismissed.
