The case centered on the issue of "reverse discrimination," where a group of white firefighters claimed they were not promoted due to their race. The city of New Haven had discarded the results of a promotion exam because no African American firefighters had scored high enough, leading to accusations of discrimination against white firefighters. The case was eventually heard by the Supreme Court in 2009, which ruled in favor of the firefighters.
