Indiana sues IHSAA over alleged racial discrimination

Indiana has filed a lawsuit against the Indiana High School Athletic Association, alleging discrimination against white people.

The lawsuit

The Indiana High School Athletic Association, commonly known as the IHSAA, oversees high school athletics in Indiana. The state’s legal action challenges conduct or a policy that it alleges treats white people unlawfully.

The specific practice at issue, the date the case was filed, and the court where it was filed have not been established here. The state’s requested remedy and the IHSAA’s response also have not been stated.

What comes next

The case will proceed through the court process. That process can establish the claims, the IHSAA’s response and whether a judge issues any orders.

The lawsuit is an allegation, not a final ruling. A court’s decision would determine whether the challenged conduct violated the law.
