Wright | 468 U.S. 737 (1984) The Wright family, along with other parents of African American public-school children, brought a class action suit against the Secretary of the Treasury and the Commissioner of Internal Revenue at the IRS. Allen, the head of a private school identified in the complaint, intervened as a defendant. The parents argued that the failure of the IRS to deny tax-exempt status to racially segregated private schools caused injury to their children on two grounds. First, the parents alleged that the IRS’s failure to comply with desegregation laws caused them direct harm by creating a climate of stigma against their children. Second, the parents claimed that their children’s ability to attend a desegregated school had been directly impaired, because the IRS’s failure to remove private schools’ tax-exempt status effectively encouraged the existence of segregated schools. The parents sought declaratory and injunctive relief in federal district court. The district court dismissed the complaint on the ground that the parents lacked standing to bring the suit. The court of appeals reversed, and the United States Supreme Court granted certiorari. Want more details on this case?
