Orr v. Orr
APPEAL FROM THE COURT OF CIVIL APPEALS OF ALABAMA
MR. JUSTICE BLACKMUN, concurring.
On the assumption that the Court's language concerning discrimination "in the sphere" of the relevant preference statute, ante at 281, does not imply that society-wide discrimination is always irrelevant, and on the further assumption that that language in no way cuts back on the Court's decision in Kahn v. Shevin, 416 U.S. 351 (1974), I join the opinion and judgment of the Court.
