The United States Supreme Court Case Article Improvement Project Project Collaboration Article is an article chosen by members of the Project who wish to participate. The object of the collaboration is to improve the article to the level of a featured article on the Misplaced Pages Main Page.
Next PCA
Nominations
Voting for the next PCA may begin at any time. The following articles have been nominated:
- Marbury v. Madison - established judicial review
- Hamdi v. Rumsfeld - government's ability to detain unlawful combatants
- Webster v. Reproductive Health Services abortion regulation
- United States v. Carolene Products Co. Footnote four started modern levels of judicial scrutiny
- Prize Cases presidential power in wartime
- While I can't think of any off the top of my head, I'm proposing a case that, unlike the ones above, doesn't have very much substance to it at all, yet it has had a powerful effect on law. That way, everyone could get involved and work to build it from nothing.
- Category:U.S._Supreme_Court_stubs is full of short articles (and a few that no longer deserve the stub designation).
- Ashcroft v. Free Speech Coalition, extremely short right now, yet an interesting case involving free speech
- Bush v. Gore - controversial case indirectly deciding 2000 U.S. Presidential Election
- Gonzales v. Carhart - Case upholding the federal Partial Birth Abortion Ban of 2003.
- Loving v. Virginia state laws banning interracial marriage uconstitutional
Voting
- Ashcroft v. Free Speech Coalition
- I'd forgotten about this case, but now I remember hearing about the court's fascinating reasoning.--Chaser T 15:48, 4 October 2006 (UTC)
Since MZM suggested it, I'll register a vote for him (her) as well, though these tend just to be pile-ons.--Chaser T 15:48, 4 October 2006 (UTC)- Making it an official vote. --MZMcBride 20:43, 4 October 2006 (UTC)
