Individual cases have been filed
in separate states questioning Cruz's eligibility to serve in the White House.
Cruz was born in Canada to an American-born mother, which most legal scholars
agree makes him a "natural-born citizen" as required under the
Constitution.
But the matter has never been settled in court.
David Weinstein, a New York State Supreme Court
justice, will hear the case pressed by two men, William Gallo and Barry Korman.
The New York Board of Elections is defending against the suit.
The controversy has been seized on by several states
who have lawsuits pending and has cast doubt on Cruz's eligibility, and spread
questions about his upbringing.
The case has cast doubts on whether
Cruz entered United illegally when he was four years old.
