Seven-Year Contempt Case Ends for Labor Leaders
The United States Supreme Court voided contempt sentences against Samuel Gompers John Mitchell and Frank Morrison in a complex labor boycott case against Bucks Stove and Range Company. The court ruled the offenses were not continuing but discrete acts, and noted the three year statute of limitations while considering whether earlier rulings aligned with the indictment. The decision, announced by Justice Holmes, was joined by Justices Van Deventer and Pitney in part with dissent from Justices, and prompts further inquiries by the House Judiciary Committee into related impeachment charges.
