1. United States v. Reynolds, Nos. 478, 479, SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED STATES, Argued October 23, 1914 , November 30, 1914
OVERVIEW: Because the contracts under which defendants in error were charged with peonage kept laborers under contract under the pain of recurring prosecutions for a failure to comply with such contracts, contracts violated the Thirteenth Amendment, and defendants in error were amenable to prosecution under federal and state laws for offense of peonage.
