HEADNOTE - 11

In mandamus proceeding by Negro to compel admission to University Law School, where return set forth plan to establish a Negro law school, court withheld entry of final order and retained jurisdiction of cause until it should be shown that an institution with equal facilities had or had not been established.

OPINION - 11

Due to the nature of the issues arising out of the pleadings, it is our conclusion that the entry of a final order herein should be withheld and the jurisdication of the cause retained until it be shown to the satisfaction of this court either that the Board of Control has furnished, or has failed to furnish, to the relator, in accordance with the principles stated in this opinion, and after his due application for enrollment, such opportunities and facilities for pursuing his desired course of study as are substantially equal to those afforded all other students duly enrolled in the same or a like course of study at any of the tax-supported institutions of higher learning within the State wherein such course is offered.

Either party to this cause may apply in this proceeding for the entry of an appropriate order finally disposing of the case, after due and regular application for enrollment has been made by the relator and such opportunities and facilities have or have not been made available to him in *617 such a tax supported institution of higher learning.

It is so ordered.
