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.
Vermont v. New Hampshire, 290 U.S. 579 (1934)
Vermont v. New Hampshire No. 2, original Decree entered January 8, 1934 290 U.S. 579
Syllabus
Decree adjudging the boundary between the states of Vermont and New Hampshire to be the low water mark on the west side of the Connecticut River and directing that the line be definitely located and marked on the ground at points which have been agreed upon in a stipulation of the parties. This work is to be done by a special commissioner, appointed by the decree and instructed thereby as to his duties, including the taking, if necessary, and filing of evidence. Directions are given as to the making, filing and service of his report, and hearing of objections. The compensation and expenses of the commissioner, as approved by the Court, with incidental expenses, are to be paid equally by the two states, as also are the costs of the suit. Either party may apply in the future for location and marking of additional points, or to have points relocated and marked "where the boundary has been affected by erosion or accretion."
This Decree is made pursuant to the opinion reported in 289 U.S. 593.
