Judge rules that the use of prone restraint is NO basis for a lawsuit. Judge Daniel Didier said there was not basis for the lawsuit filed against the Ocean View School District, two teachers and the city of Huntington Beach. The lawsuit alleged that the teachers placed the child in a face down restraint to control him after he started throwing objects in the classroom and hitting teachers.
The school district’s stance has been that prone restraint can be appropriate when a student is a danger to himself and others.
