Ashland Sch. Dist. v. Parents of E.H., No. 08-35926
In an Individuals with Disabilities Education Act action, the district court's order denying reimbursement to plaintiff-parents for their child's residential treatment is affirmed where: 1) the district court adequately responded to the hearing officer's conclusions before reaching a contrary result; 2) parents' failure to give notice was a relevant consideration when determining whether to deny reimbursement; and 3) the record contained ample evidence supporting the district court's conclusion that the parents placed the child in residential care to treat medical, not educational, problems.
