082161P.pdf   08/25/2009  Friends of Lakeview School  v.  Mike Huckabee
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  08-2161
   U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Arkansas - Helena   
   [PUBLISHED] [Gruender, Author, with Wollman and Melloy, Circuit Judges]
   Civil case. Arkansas "Act 60" regarding school consolidations does not
   violate plaintiffs' Fourteenth Amendment rights as the law is facially
   neutral and the State of Arkansas has a legitimate governmental interest
   in consolidating school districts to achieve economies of scale and other
   efficiencies, and the classification the Act draws between school districts
   is rationally related to advancing that interest.
