“A class-action lawsuit that claims the state is failing to meet its responsibilities to poor and minority students will be moving to trial.
In a ruling Friday, Hennepin County District Judge Susan M. Robiner found that the November lawsuit from a group of Minneapolis and St. Paul school district parents and a community organization had enough legal grounds to continue and refused a move by the state and a group of charter schools and parents to dismiss the case.
The case should go to trial next September, said Dan Shulman, an attorney for the plaintiffs.”
