FREDERIC BLOCK, District Judge

By order to show cause dated January 24, 2006, plaintiff J.S., on behalf of his minor child, Z.S., moved pursuant to the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act ("IDEA"), 20 U.S.C. § 1412 et seq., for an injunction requiring defendant New York City Department of Education (the "DOE") to evaluate Z.S.'s need for special education services and draft an Individualized Education Plan ("IEP") within a time frame to be set by the Court. A hearing on the order to show cause was held on February 17, 2006, during which the DOE stipulated to provide the relief sought in the order to show cause by March 2, 2006. Accordingly, the motion for an injunction is denied as moot.

SO ORDERED.
