p0280 Statistical evidence showing that African-Americans were arrested by the security force at defendant's amusement park seven times the combined rate for all other racial groups, and that while only about 7% of park visitors were African-American, about half the people ejected from the park for line cutting were African-Americans was relevant to the question of whether plaintiff's arrest and ejection for line cutting was the result of racial discrimination and involved a comparison simple enough for expert testimony to be unnecessary.CitationEVERETT v SUPERIOR COURT (Park Ejection) 104 CA4 388 [See: CivC 51 etseq; Harris v Capital 52 C3 1142]
