Your school authorizes reasonable corporal punishment consistent with your state's laws. However, one of your assistant principles asked a teacher to hold a student upside down by her ankles while he paddled her, with what turned out to be a defective paddle, causing it to pinch and wound her skin so severely that blood soaker through her clothing, leaving a permanent scar. A previous paddling of
the same child had bruised her severely enough to require medical treatment. The parents sue for damages in federal court. In defending the school, the school district attorney expresses regret over the matter, but claims that the parents are not entitled to any remedy in federal court, citing the U.S. Supreme Court's decision in Ingraham v. Wright, in which the Court stated: "The Eight Amendment's prohibition against cruel and unusual punishment is inapplicable to school paddlings, and the Fourteenth Amendment's requirement of procedural due process is satisfied by [remedies under state tort and criminal laws] . . . petitioners cannot recover damages." Who is most likely to prevail? please answer Plaintiff (P) or Defendant (D) according to which of these parties is most likely to prevail (the school is the Defendant (D) in each case):
