The attorney for the parents of an 8-year-old boy whose teacher allegedly posted his misbehavior in class on social media has filed legal documents that are a precursor to a lawsuit with the Norwalk town clerk’s office.

Jeff Forte, the attorney for parents William Hornyak and Mary Ann Choeun, filed a statutory notice of claim and a preservation of evidence order with the town clerk Wednesday.
