The following excerpt is from Payan v. L. A. Cmty. Coll. Dist., 19-56111, 19-56146 (9th Cir. 2021):

[3] See, e.g., CG v. Pennsylvania Dept. of Educ., 734 F.3d 229, 236 n.13 (3d. Cir. 2013) (assuming the existence of a disparate impact cause of action in denying plaintiffs' meaningful access challenge to Pennsylvania's school funding formula, but did not decide the issue).
