Louisville, Ky — Threats of a new legal battle over
desegregation have erupted here as a result of Superintendent of Schools Donald W. Ingwerson's recently proposed revisions in the busing
plan that Jefferson County schools have used
since 1975.
Despite the limitations imposed by the Supreme Court in Milliken I, several lower courts have
since decided that cross-district
desegregation plans can be legally justified under certain circumstances.
