Supreme Court voids Texas school trustee term law in Kimbrough case
The Supreme Court declares the 1899 act fixing four year terms for independent school trustees unconstitutional. It holds the Houston public school system trustees are officers of the state, and the law extending terms and altering elections conflicts with the Texas constitution. The decision emphasizes that legislative power cannot override constitutional limits and voids the entire act.
