[edit] Hopwood v. Texas ...Which Court Decided?

Did I miss it somewhere in the text? ...The court deciding this case is not defined. The implication from the recent 4/10/2006 "Did you Know?" link to this article was that it was the Supreme Court; the link mentioned 2 Supreme Court cases involving the UT Law School so one assumes the second case listed in the article ...Hopwood v. Texas... is that 2nd Supreme Court case. But an article about the "2003 Grutter Michigan" Supreme Court ruling that is mentioned in this article's description of Hopwood v. Texas said that 2003 case was the first such case decided since Bakke. Was this a Supreme Court or a lower court decision. The individual articles involved seem to make sense only if this was a lower court decision, but I don't see what court was involved in this article, nor as I remember, in the specific article for the Hopwood v. Texas case. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Gloryroad (talkcontribs)

It was the 5th circuit court. I have fixed the DYK. — Scm83x hook 'em 16:14, 10 April 2006 (UTC)
