Special Education Legal Expenses
Special education legal expenses for outside counsel for March 2015 totaled $31,385.
The year-to-date total of $218,676 is $26,462 (13.8 percent) more than the same period in the
previous year. In addition, total year-to-date special education legal costs of $218,676 are $142,188
(39.4 percent) less than the budgeted amount of $360,864 for this time period.
The Jeffrey A. Krew bill for March 2015 totaled $30,896, all of which related to four
administrative hearing matters.
The Carney Kelehan bill for March 2015 totaled $489, all of which related to an Office of Civil
Rights complaint.
Is Mr. Krew a defense attorney? I assume he is one, in order to defend the BOE. I never heard of him. Does he have a big firm or something ? Just curious who is defending at the taxpayer expense. The taxpayers of any County have a right to know these details as well as the probable waste in defending the indefensible.
