L.J. v. Broward Cnty. Sch. Bd.

927 F.3d 1203 (11th Cir. 2019)

SLC represented a boy with autism whose IEP and behavioral implementation plan were not fully implemented. The Eleventh Circuit, governing Florida, Georgia and Alabama, established materiality as the standard for determining if an Individualized Education Program has been adequately implemented under the Individuals With Disabilities Education Act. While precedent-setting for future cases, the court concluded in this case that the School Board had materially implemented the IEP.
