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.
Chesbrough v. Northern Trust Co., 252 U.S. 83 (1920)
Chesbrough v. Northern Trust Company No. 206 Argued January 30, 1920 Decided March 1, 1920 252 U.S. 83
ERROR TO THE CIRCUIT COURT OF
APPEALS FOR THE SIXTH CIRCUIT
Syllabus
Judgment sustained as in accord with a stipulation to abide the final result of Chesbrough v. Woodworth, 244 U.S. 72. P. 83.
In an action in tort, the amount involved is the damages claimed if the declaration discloses nothing rendering such a recovery impossible and no bad faith appears. P. 84.
After a case of that character has been removed by defendant from a state court and judgment rendered against him in the district court and circuit court of appeals, it would require very clear error to justify this Court in denying the jurisdiction upon the ground that the requisite amount was not involved. Id.
251 F. 881 affirmed.
The case is stated in the opinion.
