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.
Gring v. Ives, 222 U.S. 365 (1912)
Gring v. Ives No. 115 Submitted December 18, 1911 Decided January 9, 1912 222 U.S. 365
ERROR TO THE SUPREME COURT
OF THE STATE OF NORTH CAROLINA
Syllabus
The Act of March 3, 1899, c. 425, § 10, 30 Stat. 1121, 1151, authorizing establishment of harbor lines, was not intended, and did not operate, to paralyze all state power concerning structures of every character in navigable waters within their borders, or to automatically destroy property rights previously acquired under sanction of state authority. Cummings v. Chicago, 188 U.S. 410.
In this case, the federal question relied upon is so absolutely without merit, and the grounds are so frivolous, as not to afford a basis for exercise of jurisdiction, and the writ of error is dismissed.
Writ of error to review 150 N.C. 137 dismissed.
The facts are stated in the opinion.
