Constitutional Challenge in Kimbrough Barnett School Board Case

The Texas Supreme Court is asked to decide the constitutionality of the Twenty sixth legislature on terms of Houston school trustees and related charter issues. W H Kimbrough appeals a judgment awarding Barnett the office of superintendent of Houston public schools, with ongoing questions about mayoral appointment power and board confirmation under before and after law. The matter centers on whether the General Laws of 1890s and city charter provisions govern the election and tenure of the Houston school superintendent and the proper composition of the board.
