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.
Jennings v. Mahoney, 404 U.S. 25 (1971)
Jennings v. Mahoney No. 71-5179 Decided November 9, 1971 404 U.S. 25
APPEAL FROM THE SUPREME COURT OF UTAH
Syllabus
Appellant, an uninsured Utah motorist who was involved in an accident and whose license was suspended, attacks Utah’s Motor Vehicle Safety Responsibility Act as not affording the procedural due process required by Bell v. Burson, 402 U.S. 535. However, although there is plainly a substantial question whether the statutory scheme, on its face, affords the procedural due process required by Bell v. Burson, here, where a state court stayed the suspension order pending completion of judicial review and conducted a hearing at which appellant was given an opportunity to present evidence and cross-examine witnesses, there was no denial of procedural due process.
26 Utah 2d 128, 485 P.2d 1404, affirmed.
