DIXON v. BURKE COUNTY

15 Fla. L. Weekly Fed. C956 (11th Cir. August 29, 2002)

The Burke County Board of Education lost a white male member in the summer of 1999. The Secretary of State ordered that a Burke County Grand Jury select a replacement to be considered by the Superior Court for placement on the Board. The legal advisor to the grand jury (the local DA) recommended that someone of the same race and gender be selected to fill the vacancy so as to not rock the boat
