Description
Plaintiff-Appellee Metropolitan Board of Public Education ("Metro Board") filed suit against the Defendant-Appellant Joel Guest, by and through his parents, Sara and Bob Guest ("the Guests") to reverse the January 24, 1997 order of the Administrative Law Judge ("ALJ") in a due process hearing authorized by the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act ("IDEA" or "the Act"), 20 U.S.C. § 1400, et seq. The Guests had initiated the due process hearing to oppose the Individualized Education Program ("IEP") proposed by the Metro Board for Joel for the 1996-1997 school year. The ALJ decreed that the disputed IEP was not supported by the facts, that Joel Guest was to remain in a regular classroom for the remainder of the 1996-1997 school year, and that the Guests were the prevailing party. On appeal to the District Court for the Middle District of Tennessee, the district court reversed the ALJs order that Joel Guest be placed in the full inclusion program, ordered placement in a special education classroom for two-thirds of Joels day for the 1998-1999 school year, and declared that neither party was the prevailing party for purposes of awarding attorneys fees. The Guests then appealed to this Court. For the reasons that follow, we REVERSE AND REMAND to the district court for proceedings consistent with this order.
