Behring Sea Dispute in Supreme Court Hearing
Attorney-General Miller argued in Washington that the Supreme Court lacks power to issue a writ of prohibition against the Sitka Alaska court in the Hayward case. He contended the Alaska court’s jurisdiction hinges on Behring Sea dominion, a political question for Executive and Congress, not the judiciary, and he did not address international law as it relates to seals beyond the three‑mile limit.
