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.

Culver v. United States No. 816 Submitted April 12, 1926 Decided May 24, 1926 271 U.S. 315
CERTIORARI TO THE COURT OF CLAIMS
Syllabus
After issuance by the President of Army Regulation 1269 1/2, an officer of flying status assigned to the War College, as a student, by order of the Secretary of War, was required by that regulation to participate regularly and frequently in aerial flights, and was therefore entitled to extra pay under § 13a of the Army Reorganization Act; but prior to the date of that regulation it was otherwise, since the officer, even though he took regular flights, was not required to do so, being relieved from the Air Service regulation in that regard by the order of the Secretary assigning him to the War College.
60 Ct.Cls. 825 reversed.
Certiorari to a judgment of the Court of Claims dismissing a petition for extra pay.
