New York Court of Appeals
Campaign for Fiscal Equity, Inc., Appellants v. State of New York, Respondents
June 15, 199586 N.Y.2d 307
Summary
The New York Court of Appeals held that the plaintiffs’ complaint sufficiently pleads a cause of action under the Education Article of the State Constitution and under the Title VI regulations, but dismissed the equal‑protection claims and the claims of the community school‑board plaintiffs. The Court modified the Appellate Division’s order, reinstating the Education Article and Title VI regulatory claims and affirming the dismissal of the other claims.
