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.

Syllabus
When a lease of an Indian allotment, made by the allottee in excess of the powers of alienation allowed him by acts of Congress, is declared by those acts to be absolutely null and void, a state statute which, as applied by the state court, gives it effect as creating a tenancy at will and as controlling, the amount of compensation which the allottee may recover for the use and occupation of the land by the persons named as lessees is to that extent invalid under Article VI, cl. 2, of the Constitution. P. 253.
85 Okla. 38, reversed; certiorari dismissed.
Error to a judgment of the Supreme Court of Oklahoma which reversed a judgment recovered by the present plaintiff in error in a trial court in his action to recover for wrongful use and occupation of his allotted land.
