Description
Plaintiffs-Appellants David and Bonnie Cavanaugh ("the Cavanaughs"), on behalf of themselves and their minor child, Kyle Cavanaugh, appeal the Magistrate Judges order denying their claim that the Cardinal Local School District ("Cardinal") did not provide Kyle, who is disabled, with a "free appropriate public education" ("FAPE") as required by the Individuals with Disabilities in Education Act ("IDEA"), 20 U.S.C. 1401 et seq. Cardinal has filed a motion to dismiss the instant appeal for lack of jurisdiction on the ground that the Cavanaughs, who appear before this court pro se, cannot appear pro se in asserting Kyles rights under the IDEA. The Cavanaughs, who are not lawyers, argue that their appeal is properly before this court because: 1) they may represent Kyles rights under the IDEA and 2) the IDEA grants them a cognizable right of their own to a FAPE for their son.
