Bill to Abolish Commerce Court in House Action
Washington March 29 A bill to abolish the United States commerce court was favorably reported to the house by Representative Sims from the Interstate and foreign commerce committee. A minority report opposing the idea is expected soon with support from most Republicans and one Democrat Broussard of Louisiana. The measure would restore pre June 1910 status by sending commerce court judges to circuit courts and routing interstate commerce commission appeals to district courts. The bill limits temporary injunctions to cases of irreparable injury and grants exclusive litigation authority to the Interstate Commerce Commission.
