Volume 379 — United States Reports

This is a list of all the United States Supreme Court cases from volume 379 of the United States Reports:

Brulotte v. Thys Co., 379 U.S. 29 (1964), was a Supreme Court of the United States decision holding that a contract calling for payment of patent royalties after the expiration of the licensed patent was misuse of the patent right and unenforceable under the Supremacy Clause, state contract law notwithstanding. The decision was widely subjected to academic criticism but the Supreme Court has rejected that criticism and reaffirmed the Brulotte decision in Kimble v. Marvel Entertainment, LLC.

Beck v. Ohio, 379 U.S. 89 (1964), is a United States Supreme Court decision concerning evidence obtained by a search incidental to a good-faith warrantless arrest. Reversing the Ohio Supreme Court's decision, the U.S Supreme Court held that the record did not show facts sufficient for the Court to find that Ohio police arrested defendant with probable cause, so the criminally-punishable evidence found on his person during an incidental search was inadmissible. Accordingly, the Court vacated defendant's conviction.

Schlagenhauf v. Holder, 379 U.S. 104 (1964), was a United States Supreme Court case in which the Court held that Rule 35 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure allows courts to order a defendant to submit to a medical examination. The case came to stand for the notion that mandamus can be appropriate when there is a recurring dispute over interpretations of the Rules.

Held: 8 and then only by (1) first exhausting all remedies available with the union, (2) filing a complaint with the Secretary of Labor, who (3) may, after investigating the violation alleged in the complaint, bring suit in a United States district court to attack the validity of the election.

Gillespie v. United States Steel Corp., 379 U.S. 148 (1964), was a Supreme Court case that held that pre-trial appeals may be made on non-final issues if the trial judge, in his discretion, certifies a question of controlling law to the appellate court and the appellate court allows the appeal.

McLaughlin v. Florida, 379 U.S. 184 (1964), was a case in which the United States Supreme Court ruled unanimously that a cohabitation law of Florida, part of the state's anti-miscegenation laws, was unconstitutional. The law prohibited habitual cohabitation by two unmarried people of opposite sex, if one was black and the other was white. The decision overturned Pace v. Alabama (1883), which had declared such statutes constitutional. It did not overturn the related Florida statute that prohibited interracial marriage between whites and blacks. Such laws were declared unconstitutional in 1967 in Loving v. Virginia.

Fibreboard Paper Products Corp. v. NLRB, 379 U.S. 203 (1964), was a United States Supreme Court case in which the Court held that using independent contractors to replace all maintenance workers without consulting the union bargaining representative of those employees violates the National Labor Relations Act.

Held: and the company argues here, that, even if Judge Weinfeld did have discretion, it was nevertheless error for him to undertake 'an independent determination de novo of the costs allowed at a prior trial.' 324 F.2d, at 364. We cannot agree.

Heart of Atlanta Motel, Inc. v. United States, 379 U.S. 241 (1964), is a landmark decision of the Supreme Court of the United States holding that the Commerce Clause gave the U.S. Congress power to force private businesses to abide by Title II of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which prohibits discrimination on the basis of race, religion, or national origin in public accommodations.

Katzenbach v. McClung, 379 U.S. 294 (1964), is a landmark decision of the U.S. Supreme Court which unanimously held that Congress acted within its power under the Commerce Clause of the United States Constitution in forbidding racial discrimination in restaurants as this was a burden to interstate commerce.

Held: and, when authorized by a statute of the United States or by these rules, beyond the territorial limits of that state." [4] The Court of Appeals reached these conclusions on the basis of Civil Practice Law and Rules, § 10003, 7B McKinney's Consol. Laws Ann., § 10003: "This act shall apply to all actions hereafter commenced.

Stanford v. Texas, 379 U.S. 476 (1965), is a major decision of the Supreme Court of the United States. It stated in clear terms that, pursuant to the Fourteenth Amendment, the Fourth Amendment rules regarding search and seizure applied to state governments. While this principle had been outlined in other cases, such as Mapp v. Ohio, this case added another level of constitutional consideration for the issuance of search warrants when articles of expression, protected by the First Amendment, are among the items to be taken. In effect, when a state issues a warrant that includes the order to seize books, it must accord the "most scrupulous exactitude" to the language of the Fourth Amendment.

Held: would impair the contract instead of merely delaying enforcement while compensating the creditor for the delay. No such thing can be said about this Texas law, as the Court implicitly recognizes by placing no reliance upon the distinction between the obligation and the remedy, preferring instead its "balancing" technique.

Cox v. Louisiana, 379 U.S. 536 (1965), is a United States Supreme Court case based on the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. It held that a state government cannot employ "breach of the peace" statutes against protesters engaging in peaceable demonstrations that may potentially incite violence.

from pages 594-596 intentionally omitted] Daniel M. Friedman, Washington, D.C., for petitioner. Arthur W. Burke, Jr., Denver, Colo., for respondent. Mr. Marcien Jenckes, Boston, Mass., for State Mutual Life Assurance Co. of America and others.

Held: the Railway Labor Act does not bar courts from adjudicating such cases.

Held: in 1956, that the Democratic candidate for President, the Honorable Adlai E. Stevenson, was not entitled to equal time resulting from use of the network facilities by the Republican candidate, President Eisenhower, to report on the Suez crisis. Columbia Broadcasting System, 14 Pike and Fischer, Radio Reg. 720 (1956).
