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.
Fpc v. Amerada Petroleum Corp., 379 U.S. 687 (1965)
Federal Power Commission v. Amerada Petroleum Corp. No. 585 Decided February 1, 1965 379 U.S. 687
ON PETITION FOR WRIT OF CERTIORARI TO THE UNITED
STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE EIGHTH CIRCUIT
Syllabus
1. Where a supplier sells natural gas to an interstate pipeline company which commingles it with gas from other sources and uses some of the mixture intrastate, but sells a substantial portion thereof in interstate Commerce, the parties may not avoid the jurisdiction of the Federal Power Commission by stipulating in their contract that, contrary to the actuality of pipeline transportation, all the supplier’s gas sold under the contract will be used intrastate. California v. Lo-Vaca Gathering Co., ante, p. 366, followed. P. 690.
2. The doctrine of collateral estoppel is not applicable here, since only the scope of future regulation concerning transactions not governed by past decisions is involved. P. 690.
Certiorari granted; 334 F.2d 404 reversed.
