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
FOR THE THIRD CIRCUIT
Syllabus
1. In a criminal prosecution under the Selective Training and Service Act of 1940 for willful failure to obey a local board’s order to report for assignment to work of national importance, it is no defense that the registrant’s classification as a conscientious objector, rather than as a minister, was erroneous. P. 554.
2. Assuming a constitutional requirement that judicial review be available to test the validity of the board’s classification, Congress was not required to provide for such renew prior to final acceptance of the registrant for service. P. 554.
135 F.2d 464 affirmed.
Certiorari, 320 U.S. 209, to review the affirmance of a conviction for violation of the Selective Training and Service Act of 1940.
