Corrected Order to Show Cause

OAH Case No. 2016051141 · ALJ June R. Lehrman

OAH issued a corrected order to show cause why both District and Student should not be ordered to pay expenses, fixing a typo so the telephonic hearing date reads August 5, 2016.

Order to show cause issued Sanctions and cost-shifting

Summary

OAH had issued an order to show cause on July 29, 2016, asking why the parties should not be ordered to pay expenses. That order listed the wrong date for the telephonic hearing, so OAH issued this corrected version. Both District and Student must file written responses by 5:00 p.m. on Wednesday, August 3. The telephonic order to show cause hearing is set for 11:00 a.m. on Friday, August 5, 2016.

Why it matters

OAH can, on its own initiative, require both sides to explain why they should not pay expenses, so parents and districts alike can face cost-shifting for conduct in a due process case. A party that receives an order to show cause needs to respond on time and take part in the hearing.
