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 Railroad Company v. Clarendon Boat Oar Company, Inc. No. 102 Argued January 20, 1922 Decided February 27, 1922 257 U.S. 533
ERROR TO THE COURT OF APPEALS, SECOND CIRCUIT,
OF THE STATE OF LOUISIANA
Syllabus
A state law for securing jurisdiction over foreign corporations in proceedings in the state courts by requiring appointment of agents upon whom process may be served, applicable alike to actions by residents or nonresidents, clearly does not violate due process in not applying to transitory actions arising outside the state; a contention to the contrary made by plaintiff foreign corporation is frivolous, and will not support a writ of error. P. 534.
Writ of error dismissed.
Error to review a judgment of the Court of Appeals of Louisiana affirming a judgment of a district court of the state and dismissing for want of jurisdiction an action for breach of contract brought by the railroad against the Boat Oar Company.
