Cross-post. It's been a while since I've done a cross-post with this blog's sister blog, The FAPE Page, but another Second Circuit case in the area of special education law just came down. The Court, in Murphy v. Arlington Central School District Board of Education, has held that expert fees are compensable as costs under the Individuals with Disabilities Act, but that such fees will not generally be approved unless the application is accompanied by time records contemporaneously maintaned by the person performing the services. The decision can be found here.
