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.

FOR THE EIGHTH CIRCUIT
Syllabus
Where the defect in service of process and in procedure in the state court are waivable, and after removal there is presented to the circuit court a controversy involving more than $2,000 and between citizens of different states, that court has jurisdiction, and the method of getting the case before the court cannot operate to deprive it of jurisdiction.
Removal proceedings are in the nature of process to bring the parties before the federal court.
The defendant may waive defects in removal proceeding if jurisdiction actually exists, and if he does so, the court will not of its own motion inquire into the regularity of the proceedings.
The facts, which involve the validity of the removal of this cause from the state to the federal court and the jurisdiction of the latter thereover, are stated in the opinion.
