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.
Mahan v. Howell, 404 U.S. 1201 (1971)
Mahan v. Howell No. A-84 Decided July 27, 1971 * 404 U.S. 1201
ON APPLICATION FOR STAY
Syllabus
Stay of three-judge District Court judgment in Virginia reapportionment case is denied, as MR. JUSTICE BLACK does not believe that four Justices are likely to note probable jurisdiction, in view of fact that District Court order revising many of the electoral districts was substantially unanimous and delay incident to review might further postpone important state elections.
See: 330 F.Supp. 1138.
