Did The Shelley's get to live in there house. Did this case go back to the state court.

[edit] Counsel on the case

Dropped this sentence:

The case against the covenants was argued by noted civil rights lawyer Charles Hamilton Houston.

That name does not appear in the identification of counsel in the Court's opinion.

[edit] Decision of the court

Added "Missouri" to clarify that the state court was the one which upheld the covenant.

[edit] Truthful?

If this decision described in this article is actually true, then howcome the news media (even very recently) reports about public figures who own real estate that has deed restrictions prohibiting the sale of that land to members of certain racial and/or religious groups?

Either this decision discussed in this article is not true or the news reports about the deed restrictions are not true.

Which is it then?

[edit] "Judicial action is state action"

This clearly is not true in all circumstances. Compare Evans v. Newton, Shelley v. Kraemer, and Burton v. Wilmington with Moose Lodge v. Irvis and Flagg Brothers v. Brooks. Amcfreely 04:52, 12 April 2006 (UTC)
