Volume 334 — United States Reports

Shelley v. Kraemer, 334 U.S. 1 (1948), is a landmark United States Supreme Court case that held that racially restrictive housing covenants (deed restrictions) cannot legally be enforced.

Hurd v. Hodge, 334 U.S. 24 (1948), was a companion case to Shelley v. Kraemer, in which the Court held that the Fourteenth Amendment prohibits a federal court from enforcing restrictive covenants that would prohibit a person from owning or occupying property based on race or color. Hurd v. Hodge also involved racially restrictive covenants on houses in the Bloomingdale neighborhood of Washington, D.C.

Held: and respondent here contends, that the order was too sweeping, that it required the respondent to “conduct its business generally at its peril,” and that the Commission had exceeded its jurisdiction in entering such an order. 19 Reliance for this contention chiefly rests on Labor Board v. Express Publishing Co., 312 U. S. 426 .

United States v. Paramount Pictures, Inc., 334 U.S. 131 (1948) (also known as the Hollywood Antitrust Case of 1948, the Paramount Case, or the Paramount Decision), was a landmark United States Supreme Court antitrust case that decided the fate of film studios owning their own theaters and holding exclusivity rights on which theatres would show their movies. It would also change the way Hollywood movies were produced, distributed, and exhibited. It also opened the door for more foreign and independent films to be shown in U.S. theaters. The Supreme Court affirmed the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York's ruling that the existing distribution scheme was in violation of United States antitrust law, which prohibits certain exclusive dealing arrangements.

Price v. Johnston, 334 U.S. 266 (1948), was a United States Supreme Court case in which the court held that a circuit court may order that an imprisoned person appear before it to argue an appeal.

Held: the mandate was violated when interest was added to that sum. 164 F. 2d at 23 .

Sherrer v. Sherrer, 334 U.S. 343 (1948), was a United States Supreme Court case in which the court held that a migratory divorce is entitled to res judicata when both parties participated in the action, both parties had the opportunity to contest personal jurisdiction, and the forum state does not allow the divorce to be collaterally attacked. In a sense, Sherrer stands for the proposition that the migratory divorce is binding if both parties participated in the case when it was properly heard by the forum state

Held: the statute cited by appellants need not be given the effect which they would attribute to it, and even if it were so construed, it did not impose a constitutional limit on the power of future legislatures. 20 See note 10 supra. 21 See American Federation of Labor v. Watson, 327 U. S. 582 (1946); cf. Rescue Army v. Municipal Court, 331 U. S. 549 (1947). 22 See Hope Natural Gas Co. v. Hall, 274 U. S. 284 (1927);…

Takahashi v. Fish and Game Comm'n, 334 U.S. 410 (1948), was a test case brought by Japanese-American fishermen before the United States Supreme Court to challenge California state legislation aimed at preventing them from returning to fishing occupations they worked in before their mass removal and internment during World War II. The issue at hand was a restrictive law in California requiring American citizenship to get a fishing license. A 1945 amendment to the state code barred "aliens ineligible to citizenship" from obtaining fishing licenses. The Court held that this was an unreasonable restriction and was discriminatory to residents of Japanese ancestry.

Estin v. Estin, 334 U.S. 541 (1948), was a United States Supreme Court case in which the court held that the Full Faith and Credit Clause requires states to recognize a divorce granted in another state but not necessarily the incidences to that extraterritorial divorce. The incidence in this case was alimony. Under New York law, the alimony award due to the wife survived divorce, so the husband could not avoid the alimony by getting the divorce finalized in Nevada.

Saia v. New York, 334 U.S. 558 (1948), was a case in which the Supreme Court of the United States held that an ordinance which prohibited the use of sound amplification devices except with permission of the Chief of Police was unconstitutional on its face because it established a prior restraint on the right of free speech in violation of the First Amendment.

Held: supplemented “the remedial provision of the Anti-Trust Act for the redress of injuries resulting from illegal restraints upon interstate trade, by relieving the injured person from the necessity of resorting for the redress of wrongs com *580 mitted by a non-resident corporation, to a district, however distant, in which it resides or may be 'found’ — often an insuperable obstacle — and enabling him to institute the…

Trupiano v. United States, 334 U.S. 699 (1948), was a US Supreme Court decision that ruled that warrantless searches following arrests were unconstitutional under the Fourth Amendment to the United States Constitution.

Held: Hearings before the Senate Committee on Finance on §403 of Pub. L. No. 528, 77th Cong., 2d Sess. (September 22 and 23,1942) ; Hearings before a Subcommittee of the Senate Committee on Finance on § 403 of Pub. L. No. 528, 77th Cong., 2d Sess. (September 29 and 30,1942); Hearings before the Subcommittee of the House Committee on Appropriations on Mil. Est. App.
