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.
Skaggs v. Larsen, 396 U.S. 1206 (1969)
Skaggs v. Larsen Decided August 5, 1969 396 U.S. 1206
ON MOTION FOR STAY
Syllabus
Motion by Army reservist for release from military custody pending Court of Appeals’ review of District Court’s denial of petition for habeas corpus is granted. Reservist’s claims that the order requiring him to serve 17 months beyond his enlistment contract was without notice and opportunity to be heard, and in violation of the terms of his enlistment contract, are within the scope of the writ of habeas corpus. There is no statutory provision for a hearing, and the issue is substantial, and should be resolved.
