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 FIRST CIRCUIT
Syllabus
1. Under R.S., § 953, which provide that a bill of exception shall be deemed sufficiently authenticated if "signed" by the judge, signature by his initials only is not a nullity, and the irregularity may be disregarded or cured by amendment, under R.S., § 954, 28 U.S.C. 777 and 391, after expiration of the term. P. 174.
2. Held that there was no occasion in this case to send the bill back for amendment, there being no doubt that it was the judge who signed his initials, for the purpose of authentication, and no one having been misled or injured. P. 177.
57 F.2d 44 reversed.
Certiorari, 287 U.S. 586, to review judgments of the Circuit Court of Appeals which affirmed the judgments of the District Court solely upon the ground that the bills of exceptions had not been properly authenticated and that it was too late to send them back for amendment.
