Not with me at the moment
You'll need to review the court's ruling carefully to identify specific errors or points where your constitutional rights were compromised. If you don't have it with you now, obtaining a copy should be your first step.

No. But the first ruling said that I shall me the primary decision maker as to the education whether it be homeschooling my child or putting them into public school. The other party filed a motion asking for reconsideration. Now the ruling states that I still may choose but also states that I now have to homeschool under a different legal option which is CPI Option * and I must dual enroll my child in an accredited program and accept AEA services. Iowa law states that parents have the option to choose whether or not they want to opt in for dual enrollment and whether or not they want to participate with AEA services. I have been homeschooling for 4 years now under religious instruction. I feel this is unjust and biased.
