Rena Bilbro v. Education Professional Standards Board
DueProcess
Whether a tenured teacher is entitled to appointed counsel
QUESTIONS PRESENTED , 1. Whether a tenured teacher is entitled to appointed counsel, if she cannot afford counsel, to challenge the revocation of her teaching license. 2. Whether, as a matter of due process, a teaching license may be revoked based upon an issue that has nothing to do with her conduct as a teacher, namely an unsubstantiated claim by her now-adult daughter that the teacher's husband had engaged in sexual abuse years earlier and the teacher failed to take sufficient steps to stop it. 3. Whether the Petitioner was denied due process by the failure to consider the promises made in connection with the plea agreement that her teaching license would not be impacted. ;
