Kentucky students challenging whether the state is meeting its constitutional duty on education.

Lawsuit seeks to reopen the case that led to a landmark 1989 Kentucky Supreme Court ruling.

Plaintiffs include the Kentucky Student Voice Team , consisting of about 100 students statewide.

Kentucky is the latest state to be sued over its disparities in education funding between wealthy and poor districts.

The case is likely to end up before Kentucky 's Supreme Court , one of the plaintiffs' attorneys says.

Given the time it takes to litigate the case, the older students involved as plaintiffs realize they won't directly benefit from a favorable outcome, he says.

“Some of them talk about they hope their brothers and sisters will benefit,” he said.
