JUDGMENT: In accordance with the Court's Order entered on even date, IT IS ORDERED, ADJUDGED, AND DECREED that the Decision of the Hearing Officer is VACATED. Plaintiffs shall take $8,000.00 as an award for the reimbursement ofcosts in securing professional services in the development of Plaintiff J.D.'s Individualized Educational Plan.

Legal Document (Payment Possibly Required) 46 Filed: 3/1/2019, Entered: 3/1/2019 Court Filing
ORDER: Because the Court finds that J.D. indeed received a FAPE for the 2016-17 school year, Defendant's 24 Motion for Summary Judgment should be GRANTED. The Court further finds that Plaintiffs' 22 Motion for Summary Judgment and requested relief should be DENIED. The Court finds that the Hearing Officer's Decision should be VACATED. As such, the pending motions for the award of attorneys' fees by the Plaintiffs and the pending 17 motion to intervene (for the award of attorneys' fees filed by Plaintiffs' prior counsel) are all DENIED AS MOOT. Finally, the relief ordered by the hearing officer below is vacated (including the award of $20,800 in monetary fund), with the exception of the reimbursement costs for Dr. Morrison because the Court finds that Dr. Morrison's evaluations and involvement in the ARD meetings provided substantial assistance in developing an IEP for J.D. that resulted in J.D. being provided a FAPE.

ORDER: On November 15, 2017, the Clerk of the Court received a certified copy of an administrative record and certain exhibits from the Texas Education Agency (TEA). The Court did not view these materials but instructed the Clerk of the Court to retain them without filing them as part of the record because the TEA is not a party to this case and the Court had not requested that agency to provide any records. The Court notes the entire record appears to be over 5,100 pages in length and has only been provided to the Court in an electronic format that cannot be easily filed in the record of this case. Therefore, Plaintiffs are ORDERED to file a certified copy of the administrative record in PDF format within fourteen (14) days from the date of this Order.
