Summary:

Discusses Supreme Court rulings in issues arising under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) of 1975, which provides Federal funding for education of children with disabilities and requires the provision of a free appropriate public education (FAPE). Reviews interpretation of FAPE, the interpretation of "stay-put" provision in the due process requirements, and interpretations of related services, procedural safeguards, attorney fees, expert witness fees, and burden of proof regarding an allegedly inadequate individualized education program.
