Kamehameha Schools opposes high court review


Advertiser reports:
Kamehameha Schools attorneys contend there is no constitutional grounds for the country's highest court to review an appellate court ruling that upheld the institution's Hawaiians-first admissions policy.

What's more, Kamehameha attorneys said in a legal brief filed yesterday, the decision is not in conflict with any other court decisions and is not of national importance.

Doe has 10 days to respond. The Supreme Court is expected to respond to both filings in the coming weeks.

Update 3/18: Here's the KS response (PDF), and Doug White also takes note of the part of their response that relates the case to the Akaka bill.
