Notice of Motion for Preliminary Injunction for Benito R. vs. Eastern Los Angeles Regional Center
The lawsuit was filed on behalf of children with autism who formerly received Developmental, Individual Difference (DIR) from the Eastern Los Angeles
Regional Center in California (ELARC). The center discontinued DIR after the legislature made changes to the Lanterman Act which
governs disability support services. The changes prohibit the regional centers
from funding experimental treatment and social activities. The plaintiffs claim
that DIR is neither experimental, or a purely social or recreational activity.
They seek a preliminary injunction to ensure service continuation.
