Federal Power Commission  v.  Texaco, Inc.

 Argued: March 25, 1964. --- Decided: April 20, 1964


Mr. Justice STEWART, dissenting in part.

I agree with Part I of the Court's opinion, holding that the petition of Texaco Inc. should have been dismissed for lack of venue. I cannot agree, however, that a gas producer's application for a certificate of public convenience and necessity can be rejected without the full adjudicative hearing to which § 7 of the Act entitles him. My reasons are substantially those expressed in Judge Breitenstein's opinion for the Court of Appeals. 317 F.2d 796, 804-807.
