Court rules in favor of parent on right to independent evaluation (IEE)

KB v. HALEDON BOARD OF EDUCATION, Dist. Court, D. New Jersey 2010: Court holds that parent is entitled to an independent evaluation at district expense (IEE) where the request for such an evaluation was properly made and where the district failed to utilize the appropriate procedural route to avoid the obligation of financing an independent evaluation–i.e. commence a due process hearing.
