General SummaryThis case is from a collection containing the full text of over 16,000 Supreme Court cases from 1793 to the present. The body of Supreme Court decisions are, effectively, the final interpretation of the Constitution. Only an amendment to the Constitution can permanently overturn an interpretation and this has happened only four times in American history.

Dodge v. Brady No. 213 Argued October 14, 15, 1915 Decided February 21, 1916 240 U.S. 122
APPEAL FROM THE DISTRICT COURT OF THE UNITED STATES
FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF MICHIGAN
Syllabus
Under the exceptional conditions of this case, while there may have been ground for the district court dismissing it for lack of jurisdiction, as there was a basis for taking jurisdiction and the decision was clearly right on the merits, this Court does not reverse, but affirms the judgment which put an end to an absolutely useless controversy.
Brushaber v. Union Pacific R. Co., ante, p. 1, followed to effect that the Income Tax Law of 1913 is not unconstitutional in any of the respect involved in that or this action.
The facts, which involve the constitutionality and application of the Income Tax Law of 1913, are stated in the opinion.
