  1. Johnson v. Yellow Cab Transit Co.

    137 F.2d 274 (10th Cir. 1943)   Cited 13 times
    In Johnson v. Yellow Cab Transit Company, 10 Cir., 137 F.2d 274, 279, we said that the "* * * state has no power to forbid the transportation in interstate commerce of intoxicating liquor through its territorial boundaries."

    In dealing with this contention we assume, but do not decide, that the Oklahoma penal statutes relating to intoxicating liquor were put in force in the Reservation as Federal statutes by the Assimilative Crimes Act; neither do we decide that, if importation into the Reservation would violate a Federal statute, injunctive relief against the unlawful acts of the enforcement officers should be denied.

Sec. 4, ch. 153, O.S.L. 1933, 37 O.S.A. § 31, provides that it shall be unlawful for any person to have or keep in excess of one quart of intoxicating liquor "whether such liquor be intended for the personal use of the person so having and keeping the same or not."

  8. Carter v. Commonwealth

    24 S.E.2d 569 (Va. 1943)   Cited 2 times

    It is not to be presumed that the authority of the A.B.C. Board will be arbitrarily used; but in the event that it is abused, a person feeling himself aggrieved may seek judicial relief in the courts. In support of their contention that the regulations of the Board impose a burden upon interstate commerce, the appellants cite the recent case of Barnett v. State (Ala), 9 So.2d 267. The Alabama court did not have before it for decision statutes or regulations involving the questions here raised. In that case, it was held that the Twenty-first Amendment to the Federal Constitution did not authorize the seizure and condemnation of liquors and transporting vehicles under existing Alabama statutes, where such liquors were being transported through Alabama to another State for disposition in violation of the laws of the latter State.
