California Court of Appeal
Vergara v. State of California, 258589
In an action brought by nine students who were attending California public schools, seeking a court order declaring various provisions of California’s Education Code unconstitutional, the trial court's judgment declaring five sections of the Education Code, sections 44929.21(b), 44934, 44938(b)(1) and (b)(2), 44944, and 44955, unconstitutional and void, is reversed where plaintiffs failed to establish that the challenged statutes violate equal protection, primarily because they did not show that the statutes inevitably cause a certain group of students to receive an education inferior to the education received by other students.
