Appeals court to rehear Native Hawaiian school case
Thursday, February 23, 2006
The 9th Circuit Court of Appeals announced on Wednesday that it will rehear the Native Hawaiian admissions school policy case.
A three-judge panel of the court ruled last August that the Kamehameha Schools cannot restrict enrollment to Native Hawaiians. The entire court will now consider the dispute.
The case is the latest in a series of challenges to Native Hawaiian rights. Non-Natives, backed by conservative and Republican lawmakers and groups, are fighting efforts to treat Native Hawaiians in the same manner as tribes and Alaska Natives.
