Supreme Court of the United States - 32 U.S. 243
Tags: Constitutional Law
The US Constitution's amendments were intended to limit the powers of the federal government, not the state governments. The fifth amendment, which prohibits the taking of private property for public use without just compensation, only applies to the federal government and not to state legislation. The court has no jurisdiction over the case, and the writ of error is dismissed. The limitations on state powers in the tenth section of the Constitution are direct and explicit and apply to states without interpretation. The ninth and tenth sections of the first article of the original Constitution clearly distinguish between the limitations imposed on the powers of the federal government and those of the states.

Our proprietary state-of-the-art system can instantly brief over 6,000,000 US cases. That means we can probably brief that case that your professor assigned last night when she sent you a poorly scanned pdf and told you to read every third paragraph. Or maybe she uploaded it to Canvas and didn’t really tell you to read it, but you know you probably should. Tenure does wild things to good people.
Study groups are a great way to learn and explore a case. LSD has chat rooms for each case to let you ask questions across the community and hear what other students struggled with and how they put it all together. Learn the key points of every case from other LSD+ users and share your knowledge with LSD High Points.
