                             1899
1900     B.V. v. EDUCATION DEP’T OF       THE   STATE OF HAWAII
                                ORDER

   We affirm the judgment of the district court for the reasons
set forth in its Order Denying Plaintiff’s Motion to Reverse
Hearing Officer’s Decision and Order,1 and reported as B.V.
v. Department of Education, State of Hawaii, 451 F. Supp. 2d
1113 (D. Haw. 2005).

   AFFIRMED.

  1
   We do not reach the question of whether the Department of Education
committed any procedural violations because we agree with the district
court that, even if it did, such procedural violations did not prejudice any
of plaintiff’s rights. See 451 F. Supp. 2d at 1131-32.
