US EditionTrump administration's effort to end 1960s school desegregation cases faces a hurdle
Judge Dee Drell denied dismissal and ordered a hearing in the 1965 Concordia Parish case, part of a broader effort to end decades-old desegregation orders in Louisiana.
- On this month, U.S. District Judge Dee Drell rejected a Louisiana and Justice Department filing to end the 1965 desegregation case, citing the need for judicial review.
- Recently the U.S. Justice Department shifted to support efforts to end old orders, framing them as federal intrusion, while Louisiana state officials argue the cases are outdated and no longer needed.
- Louisiana state government and the federal government initially moved to dismiss the case by arguing remaining parties see it as unnecessary, but U.S. District Judge Dee Drell rejected the unsigned filing and offered Concordia a hearing to prove full dismantling of segregation.
- The appeal marks a legal challenge to the judge's decision, as the Concordia Parish school system and Louisiana state officials appealed the refusal in a Tuesday filing.
- Dozens of similar desegregation cases across Louisiana and the South could be affected as dozens of 1960s desegregation cases remain, some families say court orders still improve mostly Black schools.
