quasi suspect classification

A statutory classification based on gender or legitimacy, and therefore subject to intermediate scrutiny under equal-protection analysis.

• Examples of laws creating a quasi-suspect classification are those permitting alimony for women only and providing for an all-male draft. See INTERMEDIATE SCRUTINY. [Cases: Constitutional Law 213.1(1), 224(1). C.J.S. Constitutional Law §§ 714–715, 718, 733–734, 941–944.]
