Volume 588 — United States Reports

In 1918, residents of Prince George's County, Maryland, formed a commit- tee for the purpose of erecting a memorial for the county's soldiers who fell in World War I. The committee decided that the… Held: The judgment is reversed and remanded. 874 F. 3d 195, reversed and remanded.

American Legion v. American Humanist Association, 588 U.S. 29 (2019), was a United States Supreme Court case dealing with the separation of church and state related to maintaining the Peace Cross, a World War I memorial shaped after a Latin cross, on government-owned land, though initially built in 1925 with private funds on private lands. The case was a consolidation of two petitions to the court, that of The American Legion who built the cross (Docket 17–1717), and of the Maryland-National Capital Park and Planning Commission who own the land and maintain the memorial (Docket 18-18).

its effect on the outcome, the date of that outcome is irrelevant. Al- though the argument for adopting a favorable-termination requirement would be weaker in the context of a fabricated-evidence claim that does not allege that the violation's consequence was a liberty deprivation occasioned by the criminal proceedings themselves, that is not the na- ture of McDonough's claim. His claim remains most analogous to a claim of common-law malicious prosecution.

Petitioner Edward McDonough processed ballots as a commissioner of the county board of elections in a primary election in Troy, New York. Held: The statute of limitations for McDonough’s §1983 fabricated- evidence claim began to run when the criminal proceedings against him terminated in his favor—that is, when he was acquitted at the end of his second trial. Pp. 3–15.

Gundy v. United States, 588 U.S. 128 (2019), was a United States Supreme Court case that held that 42 U.S.C. § 16913(d), part of the Sex Offender Registration and Notification Act ("SORNA"), does not violate the nondelegation doctrine. The section of the SORNA allows the Attorney General to "specify the applicability" of the mandatory registration requirements of "sex offenders convicted before the enactment of [SORNA]". Precedent is that it is only constitutional for Congress to delegate legislative power to the executive branch if it provides an "intelligible principle" as guidance. The outcome of the case could have greatly influenced the broad delegations of power Congress has made to the federal executive branch, but it did not.

(b) This Court has long recognized that property owners may bring Fifth Amendment claims for compensation as soon as their property has been taken, regardless of any other post-taking remedies that may be available to the property owner. See Jacobs v. United States, 290 U. S. 13.

Rehaif v. United States, 588 U.S. 225 (2019), was a case before the United States Supreme Court dealing with mens rea. The Court held that when a person is charged with possessing a gun while prohibited from doing so under 18 U.S.C. § 922(g), the prosecution must prove both that the accused knew that they possessed a gun and that they knew they held the relevant status.

North Carolina Department of Revenue v. Kimberley Rice Kaestner 1992 Family Trust, 588 U.S. 262 (2019), was a United States Supreme Court case in which the Court held that the presence of in-state beneficiaries alone does not empower a state to tax trust income that has not been distributed to the beneficiaries where the beneficiaries have no right to demand that income and are uncertain to receive it.

Flowers v. Mississippi, No. 17–9572, 588 U.S. 284 (2019), is a United States Supreme Court decision regarding the use of peremptory challenges to remove black jurors during a series of Mississippi criminal trials for Curtis Flowers, a black man convicted on murder charges. The Supreme Court held in Batson v. Kentucky that the use of peremptory challenges solely on the basis of race is unconstitutional. This case examined whether the Mississippi Supreme Court erred in how it applied Batson to this case. The Supreme Court ruled that Flowers' case fell under Batson and that the state inappropriately removed most of the potential black jurors during the trials.

Act (FELA). Early decisions held that FELA damages were strictly compensatory. See, e. g., American R. Co. of P. R. v. Didricksen, 227 U. S. 145, 149. And the Federal Courts of Appeals have unanimously held that punitive damages are not available under FELA. This Court's early discussions of the Jones Act followed the same practices, see, e. g., Pacifc S. S. Co. v. Peterson, 278 U.

Iancu v. Brunetti, No. 18–302, 588 U.S. 388 (2019), is a Supreme Court of the United States case related to the registration of trademarks under the Lanham Act. It decided 6–3 that the provisions of the Lanham Act prohibiting registration of trademarks of "immoral" or "scandalous" matter is unconstitutional by permitting the United States Patent & Trademark Office to engage in viewpoint discrimination, which violates the Free Speech Clause of the First Amendment.

Held: by the person imparting it. See, e.g. , Webster's Third New International Dictionary 476 (1961) ("known only to a limited few" or "not publicly disseminated"); Black's Law Dictionary 370 (rev. 4th ed. 1968) ("intended to be held in confidence or kept secret"). In another sense, information might be considered confidential only if the party receiving it provides some assurance that it will remain secret.

United States v. Davis, 588 U.S. 445 (2019), is a United States Supreme Court decision in which the court held that a statute authorizing enhanced penalties for using a firearm during the commission of a "crime of violence" is unconstitutionally vague.

Tennessee Wine and Spirits Retailers Association v. Thomas, 588 U.S. 504 (2019), was a United States Supreme Court case which held that Tennessee's two-year durational-residency requirement applicable to retail liquor store license applicants violated the Commerce Clause (Dormant Commerce Clause) and was not authorized by the Twenty-first Amendment.

Held: based on its own independent analysis, that "no principle of law found either in the statute or in Court decisions precludes waiting time from also being working time." 12 Only then did the Court consider "what, if any, deference courts should pay" to the views of the Administrator of the Labor Department's Wage and Hour Division. 13 And on that question the Court reaffirmed the traditional rule that an agency's…

And in Alleyne v. United States, 570 U. S. 99, the Court held that Ap- prendi's principle “applies with equal force to facts increasing the man- datory minimum.” 570 U. S., at 111–112. The lesson for this case is clear: Based solely on the facts refected in the jury's verdict, Mr. Hay- mond faced a lawful prison term of between zero and 10 years.

Rucho v. Common Cause, 588 U.S. 684 (2019), is a landmark case of the United States Supreme Court concerning partisan gerrymandering. The Court ruled that while partisan gerrymandering may be "incompatible with democratic principles", the federal courts cannot review such allegations, as they present nonjusticiable political questions outside the jurisdiction of these courts.

Department of Commerce v. New York, No. 18–966, 588 U.S. 752 (2019), was a case decided by the Supreme Court of the United States dealing with the 2020 United States census. The case concerned the decision of the United States Census Bureau under the Trump administration to include a question asking whether respondents are United States citizens or not, on the standard census questionnaire sent to all households. That question had been purposely omitted from this "short form" since the 1950 census because officials and sociologists thought it would reduce participation in the census. It has been used on the "long form" American Community Survey sent to a subset of households and used for statistical estimation.

Petitioner Gerald Mitchell was arrested for operating a vehicle while intoxicated after a preliminary breath test registered a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) that was triple Wisconsin’s legal… Held: The judgment is vacated, and the case is remanded. 2018 WI 84 , 383 Wis. 2d 192 , 914 N. W. 2d 151 , vacated and remanded.
