Brown v Board of Education, 347 US 483 (1954)
Brown was argued twice before the US Supreme Court made a decision in the landmark case, in large part due to the death of Chief Justice Fred Vinson and his succession by Chief Justice Earl Warren. The Court submitted five questions to the attorneys that the justices wanted to address during re-argument in December 1953:
- Does the 14th Amendment proscribe public school segregation?
- Did the Congress that had adopted the 14th Amendment understand that a future Congress or the court might reconstrue the amendment and abolish segregation in light of future conditions?
- Is it was within the power of the court to construe the amendment to abolish school segregation?
- If the court finds that segregation violates the 14th Amendment, how would desegregation be carried out - with a court decree, or more gradually?
- If the change were allowed to proceed gradually, who should work out the transition - the Supreme Court, federal district courts, or a special master?
