The Supreme Court heard arguments on Monday in a case challenging the standard of proof for disability discrimination in schools. A Minnesota school district argued students must prove "bad faith," a higher standard than the "deliberate indifference" standard advocated by a family suing the district. Disability rights groups expressed concern that the higher standard would hinder future legal challenges. The court's decision could significantly impact disability rights cases nationwide under the Rehabilitation Act and the Americans with Disabilities Act.
