Decided December 20, 1920
254 U.S. 376

ERROR TO THE DISTRICT COURT, SIXTH JUDICIAL DISTRICT

OF THE STATE OF NORTH DAKOTA

Syllabus

A decree of this Court affirming "without prejudice" an injunctive decree of a state court upholding a statutory railroad rate against a charge of confiscation determines the adequacy of the rate for the period antedating the decree, and is not superseded by a decree in a subsequent suit holding the rate confiscatory upon new evidence developed by a further test. P. 377.

A federal question which has been specifically settled and is no longer an open one in this Court is not an adequate basis for a writ of error. Id.

Writ of error to review 35 N.D. 331 dismissed.

The case is stated in the opinion.
