Collin v. Smith, Docket No. 78-1385, United States Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit Order

Title

Collin v. Smith, Docket No. 78-1385, United States Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit Order

Abstract

An order for a stay of mandate is denied in the case of an appeal brought forth by Albert Smith, et al. to the Seventh Circuit Court. Judges Wilbur F. Pell, Robert Sprecher and Harlington Wood, Jr. decided that the village's ordinances were unconstitutional. The denial of the stay of mandate meant that the previous decision would proceed as previously decided. It is suggested in the document that the date the mandate would be issued would still allow enough time for the defendants to appeal to the United States Supreme Court.
