De Veau v. Braisted, 363 U.S. 144 (1960), is a 5-to-3 ruling by the Supreme Court of the United States that an interstate compact restricting convicted felons from holding union office is not preempted by the National Labor Relations Act or the Labor Management Reporting and Disclosure Act, does not violate the Due Process Clause of the 14th Amendment, and is not an ex post facto law or bill of attainder in violation of Article One, Section 10 of the Constitution.

Held: that Congress did not authorize the adoption of procedural rules which would deprive those being investigated by the Commission of the rights to apprisal, confrontation, and cross-examination.

Held: that arbitrators are private judges chosen by the parties to decide particular matters specifically submitted; 1 that the contract under which matters are submitted to arbitrators is at once the source and limit of their authority and power; 2 and that their power to decide issues with finality, thus ousting the normal functions of the courts, must rest upon a clear, definitive agreement of the parties, as such…

Held: 269 F.2d, at page 331, and see Meadows v. Radio Industries, 7 Cir., 222 F.2d 347 , 349; Atchison, T. & S.F.R. Co. v. Andrews, 10 Cir., 211 F.2d 264 , 265; Warden v. Hinds, 4 Cir., 163 F. 201, 25 L.R.A.,N.S., 529, and the announced discharge of these 11 employees then became lawfully effective. 20 Once the contract expired, no rights continued to accrue under it to the employees.

Flemming v. Nestor, 363 U.S. 603 (1960), was a United States Supreme Court case in which the Court upheld the constitutionality of Section 1104 of the 1935 Social Security Act. In this Section, Congress reserved to itself the power to amend and revise the schedule of benefits. The Court rejected that Social Security is a system of 'accrued property rights' and held that those who pay into the system have no contractual right to receive what they have paid into it.

Miner v. Atlass, 363 U.S. 641 (1960), was a United States Supreme Court case in which the court held that a court of admiralty has no inherent power, independent of any statute or rule, to order the taking of depositions for the purpose of discovery. The court also held that the local rule authorizing the deposition was invalid.
