NY School Board Owes NAACP Voting Case Fees & Court Costs

The East Ramapo Central School District, in New York, must pay The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) more than $5 Million in:

- Voting Case Fees

- Attorneys’ Fees

- Expert Witness Fees

- Other Court Costs

to a Local Branch of the NAACP and Four Voters who Successfully Sued it for Diluting Black and Latino Residents’ Votes, a Federal Court in New York Ruled.

The Fee Decision by Judge, Cathy Seibel, of the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, comes after an Appellate Ruling Jan. 6th affirming the Win for the Spring Valley Branch of the NAACP and the Voters.

The District’s At-Large Election System kept Minority-preferred Candidates out of Office in Violation of the Voting Rights Act, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit said.
