View this case - free  

Overview: District court's sole basis for granting summary judgment to the New Mexico Military Institute (NMMI) on the parents claims under the ADA and the Rehabilitation Act was that the parents' IDEA claim failed. Because those claims were separate and distinct from the IDEA claim, the court's ruling in favor of NMMI on that basis was in error.

West v. Ortiz, No. 06-1192, UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE TENTH CIRCUIT, March 9, 2007, Filed
View this case - free  

Overview: Because a district court's dismissal order for failure to exhaust under the PLRA was a final order, a prisoner's notice of appeal was timely, and his brief served as sufficient appellate notice on other issues, the court had jurisdiction over the appeal; the dismissal order was reversed in light of the U.S. Supreme Court decision in Jones v. Bock.
