United States Seventh Circuit
Porco v. Trs. of Indiana Univ., 05-1670
Suit challenging the constitutionality of a state university's residency classification scheme is dismissed where the disbursement of disputed funds to the defendants rendered the case moot since it made the remaining claim one for money damages. The university is part of the state and the Eleventh Amendment protects the defendants from satisfying a money judgment.
