Abstract

The article discusses the case of Ricci v. DeStefano regarding racial preferences in the workplace. Firefighters in New Haven, Connecticut who passed a qualifying examination were denied promotions to lieutenant or captain because they are white. The U.S. Supreme Court will decide whether the city violated civil rights law and the Constitution when it discarded the results of the examinations after no black test takers passed.
