, a
suit
was filed against the State of California alleging an illegal expenditure of taxpayer funds and taxpayer-financed resources to effect the state's new board gender quota law, which the plaintiffs (via conservative foundation,
Judicial Watch, Inc.
) assert is unconstitutional on equal protection grounds.

Cooley's post
