U.S. top court sides with disabled girl in dispute over service dog

The justices ruled 8-0 that Ehlena Fry and her parents may not be obligated to go through time-consuming administrative appeals with the local school board before suing for damages for the emotional distress she said she suffered by being denied her dog's assistance. The justices sent the case back to a lower appeals court to determine whether Ehlena's complaint involves the denial of a proper special education.
