NIRA v. U.S.
|
Detailed explanation-1: -In an opinion authored by Chief Justice Hughes, the unanimous Court held that the Act was “without precedent” and was an unconstitutional delegation of legislative authority. The President cannot be allowed to have unbridled control to make whatever laws he believes to be necessary to achieve a certain goal.
Detailed explanation-2: -Schechter was convicted in a federal district court, lost an appeal to the circuit court, and appealed to the Supreme Court, which reviewed the case in 1935. The Supreme Court held that the Live Poultry Code was unconstitutional and that the conviction of Schechter must be overturned.
Detailed explanation-3: -v. United States, 295 U.S. 495 (1935), was a decision by the Supreme Court of the United States that invalidated regulations of the poultry industry according to the nondelegation doctrine and as an invalid use of Congress’ power under the Commerce Clause.
Detailed explanation-4: -The Court also struck down the NIRA as an unconstitutional delegation of Congress’s powers to the executive branch, under what is known as the “non-delegation doctrine.” The Court said the NIRA gave the Roosevelt administration too much power to control the economy through the use of the fair practice codes.
