*649MEMORANDUM *

Jean Evans and Lisa Noyes, plaintiffsappellees, sought special education benefits for their respective children from Grossmont Union High School District (“Grossmont”), defendant-appellant, under the Individual with Disabilities Act (“IDEA”), 20 U.S.C. § 1401 et seq. Plaintiffs and Grossmont agreed to certain benefits for plaintiffs’ respective children in two separate agreements. When Grossmont declined thereafter to pay plaintiffs’ attorneys’ fees, plaintiffs filed separate actions in the United States District Court for the Southern District of California. The district court awarded summary judgments to plaintiffs holding that each plaintiff was a prevailing party and entitled to attorneys’ fees under 20 U.S.C. § 1415(i)(3)(B). Grossmont filed timely appeals from the district court’s awards of attorneys’ fees.

In our opinion in P.N. v. Seattle Sch. Dist. No. 1, No. 04-36141, which was heard in tandem with these appeals, we hold that a parent who achieves a material alteration of the legal relationship of the parties through a settlement agreement is not a prevailing party as that term is used in 20 U.S.C. § 1415(i)(3)(B), and hence is not eligible for attorneys’ fees, unless there is some judicial imprimatur of that agreement. Our ruling is based, in part, on our decisions in Shapiro v. Paradise Valley Unified Sch. Dist., 374 F.3d 857 (9th Cir. 2004), and Carbonell v. INS, 429 F.3d 894 (9th Cir. 2005), which were decided after the district court granted summary judgments in the cases at bar.

As there does not appear to have been any judicial imprimatur of either of plaintiffs’ settlement agreements, the district court’s grants of summary judgment are REVERSED.
