gamom, I am so happy that you are posting this info. I did not know about the specific code of 15009. I am thrilled that someone is voluntarily taking their time to help other parents and get this info. out here to us.
I don't think 15009 has been challenged in the 11th circuit court..yet though. I have been trying to find that out. It has been upheld in 2 other courts of appeals from what I have read. I am sure an attorney would know, of which I am not one...:)
