[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is a genuine legal question and I would ask only those who actually know the answer to reply:

Can a public school change its admissions process after its applications are submitted? It seems reasonable that FCPS would have to start all over again beginning with the application process for 2026 if they are enjoined from using the process that the initial applicants signed up for.[/quote]

That seems to be up to local policy, which cannot violate federal protections of fundamental rights. So, regardless of what FCPS/VA rules on this matter is, if federal courts do not allow the current admission process and order a new process to be implemented, then this will have to be done.

Hilton's order only mandated that the new process could not be used. A commonsense reading of that order suggests that any change to the process (however minor) would constitute a new process. If Hilton wanted to write a more exacting set of specifications, he had every ability to do so - but given his lack of judicial bona fides, it's unsurprising that he didn't. This is a guy who has been stuck at District Court for 40 years.[/quote]
