Mississippi Court Forced to Enforce Cotton Debt Judgment
The U S Supreme Court ruled that states must honor out of state judgments in a dispute over a $407 debt tied to a cotton futures deal. J J Lum bought 20 bales from C J Scartea & Co of Vicksburg paying a $400 margin, a decline in cotton wiped out the margin, and the Missouri judgment was enforced despite Mississippi laws voiding such transactions. Justice White dissented urging more respect for state sovereignty against enforcing a foreign court’s ruling.
