Notebook LM review of United States Supreme Court opinion in the case of A. J. T. v. Osseo Area Schools, Independent School District No. 279, et al., decided in June 2025. This document, including the Syllabus and the Court's opinion delivered by Chief Justice Roberts, along with concurring opinions by Justices Thomas and Sotomayor, addresses the legal standards for disability discrimination claims in the context of public education. Specifically, the Court examines whether schoolchildren bringing claims under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act must prove "bad faith or gross misjudgment" by school officials, a heightened standard previously applied by some courts. The Court ultimately rejects this higher burden of proof, ruling that claims related to educational services should be subject to the same standards as other disability discrimination cases, which generally require a showing of "deliberate indifference" for compensatory damages and no intent for injunctive relief. The concurring opinions further explore the implications of this decision and the broader interpretation of intent requirements under these federal statutes.
