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.

Missouri Pacific R. Co. v. Stroud No. 168 Argued January 14, 1925 Decided March 2, 1925 267 U.S. 404
CERTIORARI TO THE SPRINGFIELD COURT OF APPEALS
OF THE STATE OF MISSOURI
Syllabus
Where a carrier has two routes by which freight may move between two points within a state, one route wholly within the state and the other partly through another, a prospective shipment which, following the carrier’s practice and, in the absence of preference expressed by the shipper, would move over the latter route, is to be governed by the Interstate Commerce Act in respect of the carrier’s duty to avoid discrimination in furnishing cars, and a state regulation in that regard is therefore inapplicable. P. 407.
212 Mo.App. 512 reversed.
Certiorari to a judgment of the Court of Appeals of Missouri affirming, with a reduction, a judgment for treble damages recovered by Stroud from the railroad company, under Rev.Stats. Mo. §§ 985, 9990, for discrimination in furnishing freight cars.
