October 12, 1955154 Tex. 632

Summary

The Texas Supreme Court affirmed the trial court's denial of an injunction, holding that Section 7 of Article VII of the Texas Constitution is void only to the extent it requires segregation, that the first sentence of Article 2900 is valid while its second sentence is unconstitutional, and that the first two sentences of Article 2922-13 are constitutional and valid. The Court also concluded that the statute does not prohibit the use of teachers or funds in integrated schools.
