Moratorium upheld as emergency law in Minnesota case
The U S Supreme Court, by a 9 to 0 vote, upheld Minnesota mortgage moratorium law delaying redemption of foreclosed property until May 4 1935 in a decision praised as a constitutional victory for national recovery. Chief Justice Hughes cautioned that emergency does not create power though it may furnish reason for power restraint. The case involved Minneapolis couple John H Blaisdell and Rosella Blaisdell seeking more time to redeem their foreclosed property.
