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.
Remington Paper Co. v. Watson, 173 U.S. 443 (1899)
Remington Paper Co. v. Watson No. 146 Argued January 17-18, 1899 Decided March 13, 1899 173 U.S. 443
ERROR TO THE SUPREME COURT
OF THE STATE OF LOUISIANA
Syllabus
On the facts stated in the opinion, the Court holds that the plaintiff in error, a New York corporation, having, of its own motion, sought to litigate its rights to a state court of Louisiana and having been given the opportunity to do so, no federal question arises out of the fact that the litigation then resulted unsuccessfully and without the decision of a federal question which might give this court jurisdiction, following Eustis v. Bolles, 150 U.S. 370, in holding that when a state court has based its decision on a local or state question, the logical course here is to dismiss the writ of error.
The case is stated in the opinion.
