Manifestation Determination Review: — This hearing type occurs when a child with a disability faces disciplinary action, including suspension or expulsion. — Parents may request a hearing to determine if the student's behavior is a result of their disability and whether disciplinary actions are appropriate. Process of Requesting a Hearing: 1. Preparation: — Collect relevant documents, including the child's educational records, IEP, assessment reports, and any correspondence with the school district. — Clearly identify the concerns, desired outcomes, and supporting evidence. 2.

Premiering Conference: — A conference is scheduled where the parties involved, including parents, their legal representatives, and the school district, discuss the issues, present evidence, and attempt to resolve disputes. 5. Hearing Process: — The hearing takes place before the ALJ, who listens to both parties' arguments, reviews evidence, and asks relevant questions. — Each side presents their case, with the option to call witnesses or present expert testimony. 6. ALJ Decision: — After considering all evidence and arguments, the ALJ issues a written decision, typically within a certain timeframe after the hearing concludes. — The decision may include directions for the school district, such as changing the child's educational program, providing additional services, or addressing other concerns.
