Definition

  • United States v. Scotland Neck City Board of Education (1972) dealt with a legislative act that allowed a city to establish its own school district while the county system was undergoing court-ordered desegregation. At issue in Scotland Neck was whether the creation of the new city district impeded the desegregation of the county school system. [Source: Encyclopedia of Education Law; United States v.
