In re Island Airlines, Inc.
Opinion of the Court
Island Airlines filed a petition for rehearing, contending that the opinion rendered February 27, 1961 gave inadequate consideration to the “equal footing” argument, citing Coyle v. Oklahoma, 221 U.S. 559, 573.
Equality among the States in their powers of sovereignty and jurisdiction is the rule of Coyle v. Oklahoma. Petitioner mistakenly argues that the suspension of a State law is the same as suspension of a State power, i.e.,
That the constitutional concept of federal-state relations could not be violated by any stipulation in the Admission Act was recognized in our opinion. The petition for rehearing presents nothing new as to that matter.
Petition denied.
