The opinion held that Grossman should be taken in custody on sentence of a year in jail for contempt decreed by Federal judge k. M. Landis. Grossman was sentenced for contempt in a prohibition Case. The two judges gave separate opinions but concurring in effect. Hasni to Power of King the opinions of the attorneys general of Tho United states in 1841. 1845 and 1852 As to the presidents Power to Pardon were declared by judge Wilkerson to have been based on an erroneous Assumption that the president stood in somewhat similar position toward the United states courts As did the King of England toward the English courts. A it was Well said that the Power to tax is the Power to destroy it is just As True that the Power to Pardon for contempt la the Power to destroy judicial authority a judge Wilkerson said. A nor is it permissible to draw an artificial distinction based upon the method which must be employed or the form of the mandate which must be used in dealing with i obstructions of judicial Power.

The opinions of the attorneys general of the United states in 1841, 1845 and 1852. Holding that the Power of the president to Pardon embraced cases of contempt of court proceeded upon the erroneous Assumption that tinder our plan of government the president stood in a relation to the courts somewhat similar to that of the King to the courts of England. They gave no consideration to the place of judicial authority in our plan of would destroy judiciary Grossman never had been taken into custody and had served a Day when the presidential Pardon Cam. A to allow such Power in the executive is to strike a death blow at the Independence of the judiciary a said judge Wilkerson in his opinion. A the Power to punish for contempt is inherent in and essential to the very existence of the judiciary. If the president is allowed to substitute his discretion for that of the courts in this vital matter then truly the president becomes the ultimate source of judicial authority. Such a holding would he a destruction of that Cardinal principle of american institutions that the executive legislative and judicial branches of the government Are coordinate and proudly Independent.
