Mercer Law Review
The volume of civil rights and constitutional law cases decided by the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit continues to rise steadily. This article is a selection of 1975 cases deciding substantive and procedural issues which, in the authors' opinion, are noteworthy for the general reader. The selection is by no means exhaustive.

Constitutional Law--Civil Rights--Georgia's Bar Exam Does Not Unconstitutionally Discriminate On The Basis Of Race, Richard B. Badgley
Mercer Law Review
In Tyler v. Vickery the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals held that the Georgia bar examination does not discriminate against blacks in violation of the equal protection clause of the fourteenth amendment and that traditional constitutional tests, rather than EEOC guidelines promulgated under title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, are the appropriate standards by which the constitutionality of the examination must be judged. The court further held that the failure to provide for a review of a failing grade does not violate the due process clause of the fourteenth amendment because those who fail the bar exam …
Residential Mortgage Lending: Charting A Course Through The Regulatory Maze, William F. Earthman
Residential Mortgage Lending: Charting A Course Through The Regulatory Maze, William F. Earthman
Vanderbilt Law Review
One specific issue addressed by this symposium is the practice of "redlining." If what is meant by "redlining" is discrimination in residential mortgage lending, I am certainly opposed to such a practice. If, however, what is meant by "redlining" is the consideration and analysis of the effect of the surrounding neighborhood on the property which secures a particular residential mortgage loan, then there are other problems which must be addressed and focused upon. It has been stated that a lender redlines a specific geographic area located within the larger geographic area normally serviced by that lender when the lender refuses …

Scholarly Works
Kinloch School District, small and all-black, adjoins the predominantly white Berkeley and Ferguson-Florissant School Districts in St. Louis County, Missouri. Kinloch and Berkeley had comprised one district until 1937, when they split along racial lines. In 1971 the United States, pursuant to Title IV of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the fourteenth amendment, commenced a school desegregation action against the State of Missouri, the State and county boards of education, the three school districts, and several public officials. The district court concluded that all the defendants had unlawfully maintained Kinloch as a racially segregated school district. After reviewing …
Book Review, R. Lawrence Ashe, Jr., Donald R. Stacy
Book Review, R. Lawrence Ashe, Jr., Donald R. Stacy
Vanderbilt Law Review
This volume appears at first blush to fall into a freshet of recent writings on the limits of our capacity for effective social engineering. Among these writings are Daniel Patrick Moynihan's Maximum Feasible Misunderstanding, James Q. Wilson's Thinking About Crime, and James S. Coleman's qualifying affidavit in the Boston School case and subsequent articles. Upon full reading, however, Professor Glazer's attack is seen to be directed more at the dubious moral mandate for group statistical preferences than at their evidently doubtful impact on the social problems at which they have been aimed.
The Inadequacy Of Judicial Remedies In Cases Of Exclusionary Zoning, Michigan Law Review
The Inadequacy Of Judicial Remedies In Cases Of Exclusionary Zoning, Michigan Law Review
Michigan Law Review
This Note presents and evaluates the possible judicial responses to cases, like Mount Laurel, that involve challenges to entire zoning ordinances on exclusionary grounds. It argues that pragmatic and legal difficulties militate against any judicial imposition of affirmative relief not tailored to specific tracts of land and suggests that the most effective resolution of the problems confronted by low-income housing advocates lies in comprehensive legislative programs.

Illusion And Contradiction In The Quest For A Desegregated Metropolis, Henry Mcgee
Illusion And Contradiction In The Quest For A Desegregated Metropolis, Henry Mcgee
Faculty Articles
A decade of litigation in which the central issue of discrimination essentially was uncontested thus far has failed to disestablish racial segregation or produce desperately needed low-income housing for Chicago blacks. Recently, the unconcluded litigation has produced a unanimous United States Supreme Court decision exposing suburban racial sanctuaries to the possibility of integrated public housing units. Although the first-named plaintiff in the suit, Dorothy Gautreaux, did not survive the decision, the extent of her posthumous triumph is the central theme of this article. Although Gautreaux superficially indicates that a federal judge has the power to desegregate federally subsidized housing and …

Preferences In Public Employment, Robert Vaughn
Preferences In Public Employment, Robert Vaughn
Scholarly Articles in Law Reviews & Journals
INTRODUCTION: Open and competitive examination is generally perceived as the surest method of ensuring that public employees are selected on the basis of their merit and ability. Since the Pendleton Act of 1883, legislation has continually attempted to implement the view that efficient and impartial public sector employment requires that qualifications be demonstrated in an objective examination. But blacks, women and other minorities have been systematically excluded from public employment. This exclusion has resulted not only from bias in the examination, but also from other less visible aspects of the appointment process which supplant strict merit selection.

Proportional Representation By Race: The Constitutionality Of Benign Racial Redistricting, Michigan Law Review
Proportional Representation By Race: The Constitutionality Of Benign Racial Redistricting, Michigan Law Review
Michigan Law Review
Wilson raises two questions that are basic to the use of "benign" racial classifications in drawing legislative districts. First, is there a constitutional right to proportional representation and, second, if there is no such right, are there circumstances under which a scheme devised to provide proportional representation is constitutionally permissible. This Note will demonstrate that, while the Supreme Court recognizes the constitutional right of each individual to participate on an equal basis in the community's political process and to enjoy an undiluted vote, it denies any constitutional right of groups to proportional political representation. It will then show that the …

Toward Equal Delivery Of Municipal Services In The Central Cities, Kenneth W. Bond
Toward Equal Delivery Of Municipal Services In The Central Cities, Kenneth W. Bond
Fordham Urban Law Journal
Urban living has become inevitable for most Americans in central cities and government assistance has risen steadily to help the masses crowded in the urban complex. Legislation has been aimed at equalizing the opportunity for employment, decent housing, voting, education, basic social welfare, and a host of other concerns considered elemental for the fulfillment of the “American dream.” Until recently, the courts have been slow to act affirmatively to remedy the inequities related to the enforcement of such legislation. Recent cases suggest an attitude of benign complacency in the Supreme Court, allowing it to ignore critical socio-economic problems in the …
