Brief of Amici Curiae the Lawyers' Committee for Civil Rights Under Law, et al. in Support of Respondents in Grutter v. Bollinger, et al.
Legal Brief - February 19, 2003 -
- The Supreme Court should follow the wisdom of Casey and Bakke--"Prudential and pragmatic considerations" necessitate reaffirming Bakke.
- The law school's race-conscious admissions program is narrowly tailored.
- De Novo review of constitutional facts is appropriate in this case--The Court of Appeals acted within its purview in applying de novo review on the issue of whether the law school uses an impermissible quota and on the implied issue of "constitutional necessity."
