Meanwhile, the real-life consequences of the same-race requirements have emerged in a number of court battles. Most prominent has been the case of Lou Ann and Scott Mullen of Lexington, Texas, who filed suit in April to adopt two black brothers, ages 2 and 6, whom they have raised since infancy. Though Texas law bars race from being the determining factor in adoption, the Mullens charge that caseworkers delayed the adoption in order to seek an African-American home.
