<em>"Sweatt vs Painter" </em>ruling was successful in challenging the "separate but equal" doctrine of racial segregation established by previous case "Plessy vs Fergusson".

<em>"Brown vs Board of Education"</em> ruling effectively overturned the ruling of the <em>"Plessy vs Fergusson case"</em>, when the Supreme Court indicated that state laws that permitted separate public schools were unconstitutional.
