On Sept. 8, 1981, the Carlin Trial Court filed its Order re Integration Plan, 1981-82. The Carlin plaintiffs then filed a notice of appeal, dated Oct. 28, 1981, from that order, which did not contain a mandatory reassignment segment as continuously requested by them.

An appellate court will sometimes decide a case on a broader grounds than those raised on appeal, as the Warren Court did in Gebhart v. Belton, on certiorari from the Supreme Court of Delaware. See Brown I, 347 U.S. at 487; fn.1. But it seemed wise to consider that a higher court might not overlook a failure to appeal on the broader points raised by the "Groundswell" |
