Fifth Circuit Finds Quota System at Magnet School

The Shreveport Times reports that the United States Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals reversed and remanded a decision in favor of the Caddo Parish School Board, finding that a magnet school admissions policy was a quota system. The article notes that the case was won by pro se plaintiff, Julie Ann Cavalier. "All we know is that we beat them," she said. "Caddo Parish may take it to the Supreme Court, but I doubt it. I've said all along I'd take it as far as I had to."
