How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

  • holding that the exceptions to mootness “underline the different aims of the standing and mootness doctrines.”
  • stating that \impact alone is not determinative\ of intent and \the Court must look to other evidence\ (internal quotation marks & citations omitted)
  • holding the Supreme Court “implicitly adopted” the Department of Housing and Urban Development’s burden-shifting disparate impact approach
  • noting that comments about the “flavor” and “character” of a village, although “not overtly race-based” could be “code words for racial animus” (internal quotation marks omitted)
  • reiterating that appellate court will not consider argument raised for first time on appeal
  • observing that “[r]acially charged code words may provide evidence of discriminatory intent by sending a clear message and carrying the distinct tone of racial motivations and implication,” even absent “explicitly racial language” (internal quotation marks omitted)
