Companion Arizona Tuition Organization Tax Credit Case Summarily Decided By Supreme Court

Today, the U.S. Supreme Court disposed summarily of Arizona School Choice Trust v. Winn, (Docket No. 09-988) granting certiorari and remanding the case to the 9th Circuit for further proceedings. (Order List)  The case was a companion case to Arizona Christian School Tuition Organization v. Winn and Garriott v. Winn that the Court decided together earlier this month, holding that taxpayers lack standing to challenge Arizona's school tuition organization tax credit program. The cases decided together had the same counsel, while different counsel represented petitioners in the case disposed of today.
