Abstract:

Each year the number of students whose native language is not English increases in the state's public schools. Currently over 7,500 students who speak over sixty languages are enrolled. Providing these students an achievable educational program challenges school personnel. Dowling discusses programs for LEP students over the past twenty years, federal mandates for schools with LEP students, and problems specific to North Carolina schools.

This memorandum discusses the case law on immunities applicable to prosecutors, judges, and public defenders and attempts to classify the level of protection for each group depending on the function performed.
