[Q]: class’s claims, its interests are not antagonistic to the class, and its chosen counsel are qualified and competent. The Court also notes that the members of the aptly-named Pension Fund Group are public institutional investors, which comports with the PSLRA’s expressed preference for such lead plaintiffs. The PSLRA’s legislative history explains as follows: “[t]he pension funds accounting for $4.5 trillion or nearly half of the institutional assets, in many cases the beneficiaries of pension funds — small investors — have the greatest stake in the outcome of the lawsuit.” H.R.

[Q]: of his criminal history and likelihood of reoffending. Currie notes that most of his prior convictions were remote and that he has demonstrated both a decrease in criminal behavior since 1990 and a decrease in violent conduct since 2006. However, the vast majority of Currie’s adult life has been spent in prison, undermining his argument that his reduction in criminal convictions during this period is indicative of reduced criminality. Notably, Currie’s dozens of institutional would impose the same sentence as a variance sentence, even if it erred in its Guidelines calculations or application of U.S.S.G. § 4A1.3(a). And although Currie identified nonfrivolous mitigating factors in support of a lower sentence, see, e.g., United States v.

They opined that a full-time dédicated one-on-one aide would deflect from the goal of promoting independence for Timothy. The IDEIA does not require school districts to consult with outside experts or to adopt their recommendations. The failure to do so does not automatically constitute a serious deficiency in the IEP. Renner v. Bd. of Educ. of the Public Sch. of the City of Ann Arbor, 185 F.3d 635 (6th Cir.1999) (<HOLDING>). Under the regulations to the IDEIA, decisions
