United States. District Court (South Carolina)

Federal desegregation lawsuit filed against the Charleston County (S.C.) School District in 1981 under the direction of the Carter administration. This lawsuit is one of the longest running civil cases in South Carolina history. The plaintiffs - the U.S. Justice Department, the NAACP Legal Defense and Education Fund, and several black families - allege that a 1967 law that consolidated eight county school districts left county schools unconstitutionally segregated. Attorney Robert N. Rosen represents the Charleston County School District.
