This guide is intended for MDE users and explains how to complete a Due Process Complaint Corrective Action Plan (CAP) in Catamaran. The Due Process Complaint (CAP) activity is intended for those districts and ISDs that are the subject of a due process complaint where an administrative law judge has issued a final decision and order containing corrective action. The activity will allow the district or ISD to develop the corrective action within Catamaran and to provide evidence of correction within the timeline of the final decision and order. The Due Process CAPs will only show on the task lists of those people who have been assigned to the Review Panel in Catamaran.
