Amicus Brief: Fitzgerald v. Barnstable School Committee

August 29, 2009

In this brief, the National Women’s Law Center and the American Civil Liberties Union urged the Supreme Court to determine that the existence of a remedy for sex discrimination claims under Title IX did not displace the ability to enforce constitutional claims for sex discrimination through a suit under 42 U.S.C. § 1983.  In its 2009 opinion in Fitzgerald v. Barnstable School Committee, the Supreme Court agreed that a plaintiff alleging sex discrimination in public education can bring both Title IX and § 1983 claims.
