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.
Warren Trading Post Co. v. Arizona Tax Comm’n, 380 U.S. 685 (1965)
Warren Trading Post Co. v. Arizona Tax Commission No. 115 Argued March 9, 1965 Decided April 29, 1965 380 U.S. 685
APPEAL FROM THE SUPREME COURT OF ARIZONA
Syllabus
Appellant, the operator of a retail trading post on the Navajo Indian Reservation under a license granted by the Commissioner of Indian Affairs pursuant to 25 U.S.C. § 261, challenged the right of Arizona to levy a tax on its income from trading with reservation Indians on the reservation. The State Supreme Court upheld the tax.
Held: Since Congress has broadly occupied the field of trading with Indians on reservations by all-inclusive regulations and statutes, the States may not impose additional burdens on the traders or the Indians, and therefore this tax may not be imposed on appellant. Pp. 686-692.
95 Ariz. 110, 387 P. 2d 809, reversed and remanded.
