Legal Update for Special Education Law – Results & Thought Leadership*

Results

Christopher Conrad and Jacob Gilboy (both of Harrisburg, PA) achieved dismissal of a suit against a school district by way of preliminary objections. The case involved allegations that the district deprived the plaintiffs of certain educational rights, premised on procedural due process violations, negligence and subornation of perjury. Preliminary objections were filed to the plaintiffs’ original complaint on both procedural and substantive grounds. The plaintiffs were granted leave to amend their complaint to correct their deficiencies. After filing of an amended complaint and additional preliminary objections on similar grounds, argument was held. As a result, the court agreed with Chris and Jake and dismissed the plaintiffs’ amended complaint with prejudice. The court further directed the prothonotary to mark the case as closed.
