The study investigated the degree of compliance of selected Arizona public school districts with a set of state statutes which placed a limit on the amount bilingual education services a district could provide to students.

It is the right of every employee in South Africa not to be unfairly dismissed. According to the Labour Relations Act 66 of 1995 an employer may fairly dismiss an employee on the grounds of conduct, capacity or operational requirements. In addition, the employer is required to also comply with a fair procedure before effecting a dismissal. The requirement of procedural fairness is, however, not as stringent as it was under the previous dispensation established by the former Industrial Courts in terms of the earlier Labour Relations Act.

In order to improve responses to sexual assaults so that fewer cases drop out of the criminal justice funnel, it is important to understand the decision-making processes of the police and prosecutors in these cases. The focal concerns perspective posits that legal and extralegal variables factor into the police and prosecutors' decisions about how to proceed with sexual assault cases. Although decisions made at the prosecutorial stage are largely reliant on the actions of the police, the prosecutors' charging decisions often differ from how the police classify the incidents.

When children are sexually abused it usually takes place in concealment. This means that unless the child reveals the abuse, it will remain hidden.

The result of research indicates that there are certain recognisable reasons, which are frequently encountered, as to why a child may either delay telling anyone about his or her experience or as to why s/he may never tell anyone.

Abstract:

The difficulties in interpreting and implementing the related services required under the Education for All Handicapped Children Act of 1975 have generated many state and federal court cases, state and local administrative hearings, and federal policy letters. However, these court cases, hearings, and policy letters have resulted in some contradictory rulings pertaining to the provision of related services. The purpose of this study was to (1) examine the issues associated with the provision of related services, (2) determine how they have been resolved in these administrative and judicial pro

Abstract:

In this thesis, we present the outcomes of a research conducted on children's domestic labor in Haiti. In addition to being engaged in housekeeping work -- which has a negative impact on access to basic education -- children in domesticity are generally victims of harmful disciplinary measures as well. Consequently, our main objective is to expose the actual norms and practices regarding the education and the physical treatment of young domestic workers.<br>Based on legal pluralism, the approach undertaken during this research combines both theoretical and empirical research, and focuses on la
