The decision upheld the legality of the wartime internment policy
The Supreme Court case Korematsu v. United States violated the Fourteenth Amendment's Equal Protection Clause by allowing the internment of Japanese Americans based on their ethnicity. It also violated the Fifth Amendment's Due Process Clause by depriving individuals of their freedom without sufficient justification.
It is Korematsu v US and was a landmark Supreme Court decision allowing the USA government to place Japanese Americans in internment camps during WWII.
Korematsu v. United States, 323 US 214 (1944)Chief Justice Harlan F. Stone (1941-1946) presided over the Court for the Korematsu case, a challenge to the constitutionality of Executive Order 9066 that established Japanese Internment Camps during World War II.
Korematsu v. United States, 323 US 214 (1944), was a landmark US Supreme Court case concerning the constitutionality of a Presidential Order, which ordered Japanese-Americans into intenment camps during WWII. In a 3-6 decision, the Court sided with the government, ruling that the exclusion order was constitutional.The Korematsu decision has never been explicitly overturned, but remains significant both for being the first instance of the Supreme Court applying the strict scrutinystandard to racial discrimination by the government and for being one of only a handful of cases in which the Court held that the government met that standard.
US Supreme Court decisions are called opinions.
The official decision of the Supreme Court is known as an opinion. Rulings by the US Supreme Court cannot be appealed by a higher court.
Omg based god !
The United States won, as Fred Korematsu was not granted his appeal and was sent to an internment camp, and none of the Japanese-American's cases were looked into. This fool has no idea what he is talking about... he was not even close to knowing what really happened with Fred Korematsu. Korematsu won this as some would say "battle" against the United States. Fred Korematsu did not have to go to the internment camp.
the lower court's decision stands unless there is a majority of the Supreme Court in favor of overturning it.
The decision of the lower court is final.
