United States Supreme Court

311 U.S. 578

Railroad Commission of Texas  v.  Humble Oil & Refining Company

 Argued: Dec. 12, 1940. ---


This case is a companion case to Railroad Commission v. Rowan & Nichols Oil Company, 311 U.S. --, 61 S.Ct. 343, 85 L.Ed. --, decided this day. There are minor variations in the facts of the two cases, but not of sufficient moment to call for particularization. The decision in the Rowan & Nichols case is decisive of this.

The decree is vacated and the case is remanded to the district court for dismissal of the complaint. So ordered.

Decree vacated and case remanded.

The CHIEF JUSTICE, Mr. Justice McREYNOLDS and Mr. Justice ROBERTS dissent.
