  • Smith v. Robinson

    In this case the U.S. Supreme court sided with the school district, because the parents in the case did not pursue other options prior to the court case. Because of the Supreme court decision, the U.S. congress passed an amendment to the EHA, which overruled the
    Supreme court decision.
    The amendment states that parents can collect attorney's fees after winning a case against the school. karinamichael.yolasite.com/smith-v-robinson.php
