Yadon v. Lowry

This appeal raises fundamental questions about the subject matter jurisdiction of the Superior Court to consider administrative appeals from decisions of the bureau of rehabilitation services (bureau) of the department of social services. The plaintiffs, Stephanie Toise and David Dressler, both of whom have severe learning disabilities, applied to the bureau for reimbursement of certain educational expenses. The bureau denied the request of the first plaintiff in part and the request of the second plaintiff in whole.
