Louise DeBerry v. Chicago Board of Education, et al.
Paid petition · Appellate Court of Illinois, First District, No. 1-23-2212 · judgment August 27, 2024
Before the decision, well below the 4.1% base rate: the model weighted this down for a self-represented petitioner.
Question presented
Does the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment provide a mechanism for relief in administrative hearings when evidence is introduced that is unduly prejudicial that it renders the hearing fundamentally unfair? Did the Board violate the Petitioners Due Process rights of the Fourteenth Amendment when they elicited inadmissible evidence during the Boards hearing? Whether the Due Process Clause of the Fourth Amendment is violated when fabricated inadmissible hearsay evidence is used and the record shows a conspiracy by the witness to determine facts.
