James Meredith took his case against the University of Mississippi to The US Supreme Court.

James Meredith sued the University of Mississippi due to the fact that he argued that the university had violated his constitutional rights by not accepting his admission. The case was filed at the US District Court for the Southern District of Mississippi.

The court favoured him. Later on, the case was appealed to the US Supreme Court, which advocated the ruling.
