Supreme Court Ruling in Winkleman v. Parma City School District
Parents of children with disabilities may represent their own
interests when challenging a public school
districts individualized education plan (IEP) for their child with
disabilities. The majority opinion in was
that the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act guarantees
rights to both children and their parents. So,
when parents protest an IEP in court, they represent their own
interests and are not engaged in the unauthorized
practice of law.
