Description

Fully signed Supreme Court decision in US v. Nixon

Official booklet for the Supreme Court proceedings in United States v. Nixon, thirty pages, 5.75 x 9, decided on July 24, 1974, signed on the final page in ink by Warren E. Burger, William O. Douglas, William J. Brennan, Jr., Potter Stewart, Byron R. White, Thurgood Marshall, Harry A. Blackmun, and Lewis F. Powell, Jr. In fine condition. It is interesting to note the absence of Rehnquist, as the justice recused himself from the case as he had served in the Nixon administration as assistant attorney general. The landmark case resulted in a unanimous ruling against Nixon that rejected his claim to immunity from the judicial process. The decision was important in the late stages of the Watergate scandal and influenced Nixon’s decision to resign sixteen days later. Pre-certified PSA/DNA.
