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 scrutiny
standard 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.
