Supreme Court strikes down Vie court of visitation act

In a landmark ruling the court declares the law creating the court of visitation unconstitutional. Justice Smith writes the opinion, concurring with Justice Johnston while Chief Justice Doster dissents, holding that the act merges legislative, judicial and administrative powers in conflict with constitutional separation of powers. The decision outlines nine functions deemed legislative or administrative, including setting freight rates, apportioning charges, regulating depots and crossings, and prescribing safety rules for trains. The court affirms the lower court’s refusal to act and notes rate making is a legislative and administrative task incompatible with judicial authority.

Doster Dissents on Court Energy in Unconstitutionality

Justice Doster voices strong dissent on the majority’s approach to ruling as unconstitutional. He questions the court’s fixation on a supposed separation of powers, argues legal principles are not clearly separable in government practice, and warns against locking in rigid divisions while acknowledging legislative and judicial roles may intertwine. He cites comparative administrative law and notes railroad rate adjudication remains a legislative and judicial balance. A second item reports Braddock plant workers to resume at nail mill next Monday and red mill a week later, about 500 employed, with capacity improvements lifting output to 108,000 pounds daily.
