Child Voted Out of Class, Lawsuit Says
The mother of a child with a form of autism has filed a lawsuit against child’s teacher, school officials and others over an incident in which she claims other students were allowed to “vote” him out of the class. In the suit, Melissa Barton alleges that the defendants violated the Americans with Disabilities Act and caused emotional distress. The child, who suffers Asperger’s syndrome, is now being homeschooled.
