    Patrice – You may be able to use one of the following links to find legal advice in your specific area.

    Select your state page from the Yellow Pages for Kids directory. http://www.yellowpagesforkids.com/help/states.htm

    The National Disability Rights Network previously maintained an attorney directory. This directory is no longer available, but you may want to contact the agency in your area for information and/or recommendations.

    Is it possible that a child with special need will be wrongfully accused if he is not welcome in the classroom OR if certain class mates do not like this child . Let’s say the other classmates wrote a written statesmen to the sheriff’s dept. stating that he special needs child said he wanted to kill some one. The child with special need was not given the right to make a written statement.
    Or his witness .
