On October 15, 2013, the Supreme Court heard oral argument in Schuette v. Coalition to Defend Affirmative Action. The question in this case is whether a state violates the Fourteenth Amendment's Equal Protection Clause by amending its own state constitution to prohibit race- and sex-based discrimination or preferential treatment in public-university admissions decisions.

To discuss the case, we have Robert Driscoll, who is a partner at Friedlander Misler.
