Some states post all due process decisions on the Internet. The Texas Department of Education tries harder. In addition to loading published decisions onto their website, Texas includes a search feature on their site. This means that visitors can search the site by Docket Number, Petitioner, Respondent, Hearing Officer or Issue. If you follow the link (below), you'll find a good law and advocacy website.

We commend the state of Texas for providing parents and advocates with information about their legal rights and responsibilities. 

Other states publish little information is useful to parents and educators. 

This caused us to ask, "How many states publish information about due process decisions and special education regulations on the Internet?"

We didn't know so we decided to ask for your help.

We are conducting a SURVEY of newsletter recipients for answers to three questions.

1. Does your state publish its due process decisions on the Internet? Yes or No.

If "Yes," please provide us with the internet address for due process decisions.

2. Does your state publish special education regulations on the Internet? Yes or No. 

If "Yes," please provide us with the internet address for your state regulations.

3. Your State of Residence. 

If you have answers to these questions, please send your answers by e mail to 

survey@wrightslaw.com

After we tally your responses, we’ll post our findings on the web site.
