There should be a hearing on this. Your son cannot be expelled without one. Call me.

Legal Answer
Hello:
If he had no knowledge of what he was holding- potassium tablets- that certainly will help with his defense. I have not heard of potassium tablets going off alone without another agent present so am curious what was going on here.
His discipline history will also matter.
I would urge you to consult with an attorney on this matter to discuss your options. You may be able to negotiate a good outcome pre-hearing.
Best of luck!
