RALSTON REPORTS – ACLU raises admitted ex parte conversations by state treasurer in school choice filing
In a pair of school choice lawsuit filings within the last week, the American Civil Liberties Union of Nevada has raised questions about Treasurer Dan Schwartz’s admission of ex parte conversations with state Supreme Court justices.
The ACLU argues in its filings, which are below and reported by the Review-Journal, that the expedited hearing schedule “does not allow the parties either the time or space to adequately address the complex and weighty constitutional violations at the heart of this case.” The group also contends the state’s lawyers have presented “a wildly inaccurate and misleading summary of the discussions that took place between counsel regarding the briefing and oral argument schedule” and claim the state lawyers “withheld material information, and acted in less than good faith.”
