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.
Engleman v. Amos, 404 U.S. 23 (1971)
Engleman v. Amos No. 70-33 Decided November 9, 1971 404 U.S. 23
APPEAL FROM THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE DISTRICT OF NEW JERSEY
Syllabus
A New Jersey regulation applicable to payments under the federally financed Aid to Families With Dependent Children program was challenged on income-calculation grounds and, since it authorized payments directly to vendors who provide gods or services to beneficiaries, on the ground that it conflicted with § 406 of the Social Security Act. The District Court upheld the challenges, enjoined enforcement of the regulation "insofar as it violates the federal statute," and ordered the State to "revise the regulation to conform to the federal statute."
Held: Section 406 does not prohibit a State from making vendor payments solely from nonreimbursable state funds.
333 F.Supp. 1109, affirmed as modified.
