1. Individuals With Disabilities Education Act

2. Section 504 of the Vocational Rehabilitation Act of 1973 is civil rights law for persons with disabilities. It prohibits discrimination against persons with disabilities by programs receiving Federal financial assistance. Although Sections 504 defines handicaps or disabilities more broadly than IDEA, education regulations implementing Section 504 [34 CFR 104 et seq.] are very similar to those for IDEA.

3. The Ninth Circuit in 831 F.2d 1430 (1987) affirmed the 1984 district court ruling that conditions in the isolation unit violated constitutional rights of juveniles but reversed the remedial order. Special education issues were not addressed in the court rulings or the dismissal order.

4. Educational claims based on 8th and 14th amendments of the U.S. Consortium.

5. Educational claims based on due process clause of 14th amendment of the U.S. Constitution.
