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.

ERROR TO THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF KANSAS
Syllabus
Where the judgment of the state court rests upon an independent or nonfederal ground which is adequate to sustain it, this Court has not jurisdiction to review it.
Where, as in this case, the decision of the state court involves simply the exercise of the equitable jurisdiction in accordance with the jurisprudence of the state, the ruling which prescribes the conditions of relief is not reviewable by this Court.
In this case, held that the decision that a party seeking to redeem lands might do so on equitable grounds only and on the equitable condition that he pay the debt with legal interest, rested on a non-federal ground sufficient to sustain it and was not reviewable here.
Writ of error to review 87 Kan. 221 dismissed.
The facts, which involve the jurisdiction of this Court to review the judgment of a state court under § 237 Judicial Code are stated in the opinion.
