What is the difference between de facto segregation and de jure segregation

De jure segregation is enforced by law...think of bathrooms and water fountains labeled "whites only"

De facto segregation is "enforced" by locals, (both black and white) who feel that the two should not mix. For example, in Orange County and Los Angeles, there is a great deal of this type of segregation. A black man may enter San Clemente or Dana Point any time he wishes, but he may feel very "alone" in the same way a white man wandering around south LA would feel very much an outsider...sadly, if traveling alone, neither is entirely safe from the locals (this includes local law enforcement)

This division has made OC Main, The Men's Central Jail Complex aka CJX a de jure segregated facility...housing or "celling" blacks and whites togther, or even on the same tier or cell block contributes to far too much violence, so the facility is segregated.

de facto segregation exists even though it is not required by law (gradpoint)

Can Mormons serve on the Supreme Court

Yes, if a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) were to be appointed to the Supreme Court, both their religion and the government would allow them to serve on the Supreme Court.

As of 2014, Mormons have served on state supreme courts, but not in the national Supreme Court.

Why did the federal government not pass civil rights laws until the late 1950s

Congress wouldn't pass them. The discrimination and Jim Crow laws were in powerful southern districts and they prevented the passage of civil rights. Plus, the Supreme Court ruled in the Brown decision that separate but equal wasn't equally.
