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.

CERTIORARI TO THE CIRCUIT COURT OF APPEALS

Syllabus
1. Jurisdiction of the District Court upon the ground of federal question is determined by the allegations of the bill, and not by the way the facts turn out or by a decision of the merits. P. 30.
2. Where a bill complaining of the attempted appropriation of plaintiff’s land by a city as part of a street alleges that the city’s action is without authority from the state law, but goes on to say that, under color of state authority, the city is attempting to take and appropriate the use of plaintiff’s property and deprive him thereof without compensation or condemnation proceedings, and without due process of law, in violation of the Fourteenth Amendment, a substantial federal question is presented. P. 32.
54 F.2d 777, 778, reversed.
Certiorari, 2815 U.S. 535, to review affirmances of two decrees of the District Court dismissing bills by which the plaintiff sought to enjoin the city from appropriating land as part of a street.
