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.

Ex Parte First National Bank No. 11 and 12, Original No. 11 Argued March 10, 11, 1913 No. 12 Submitted March 11, 1913 Decided May 5, 1913 228 U.S. 516
IN MANDAMUS
Syllabus
Striking from the record, for noncompliance with the rules of court, the bill of exceptions, after the case has been heard on it merit, is not a refusal to take jurisdiction or a refusal after taking jurisdiction to exercise it; if the action is erroneous it is but an error committed in the exercise of judicial discretion, reviewable by writ of error and not by mandamus.
Mandamus in this case to compel the Court of Appeals of the District of Columbia to reinstate a bill of exceptions which on motion it had stricken out for failure to comply with its rules, refused.
The facts are stated in the opinion.
