Homer Plessy lost. The US Supreme Court upheld Judge Ferguson's ruling and validated the Louisiana Separate Car Act of 1890, paving the way for segregationist Jim Crow laws and other civil rights violations against African-Americans.
The "separate but equal" doctrine established in Plessy v. Ferguson, (1896) was eventually overturned by the Warren Court in Brown v. Board of Education, (1954).
