- Authors
Subit, Michael
- Abstract
The article discusses the court case Ricci v. DeStefano wherein the U.S. Supreme Court raised the burden of proof of the defendant employer. The district court rejected the claims of the plaintiffs because the test exam results were rejected for all applicants, regardless of their race. According to the author, the practical result of the decision will be greater racial inequality of employment opportunity.
