Illinois v. Michigan, 409 U.S. 36 (1972)

Illinois v. Michigan


No. 57, Orig.


Decided October 24,1972
409 U.S. 36

ON MOTION FOR LEAVE TO FILE BILL OF COMPLAINT

Syllabus

The failure of the State of Illinois to petition for a writ of certiorari with respect to an adverse Michigan Supreme Court decision in a case to which Illinois was a party "vindicat[ing] . . . grievances of particular individuals" precludes recourse to this Court’s original jurisdiction as an alternative to normal appellate review.

Motion denied. See 386 Mich. 474, 192 N.W.2d 242.
