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.

Stanley v. Public Utilities Commission No. 551 Argued April 3, 1935 Decided April 15, 1935 295 U.S. 76
APPEAL FROM THE SUPREME JUDICIAL COURT OF MAINE
Syllabus
In limiting the use of state highways for intrastate transportation for hire, the legislature reasonably may provide that carriers who have furnished adequate, responsible, and continuous service over a given route from a specified date in the past shall be entitled to licenses as a matter of right, but that the licensing of those whose service over the route began later than the date specified shall depend upon the public convenience and necessity. P. 78.
133 Me. 91, 174 A. 93, affirmed.
Appeal from a judgment overruling exceptions taken in the court below for the review of an order of the Public Utilities Commission of Maine. The order denied in part the appellant’s application for a certificate of Public convenience and necessity authorizing him to operate motor vehicles as a common carrier, on certain designated highways.
