Today in Supreme Court History: December 25

<i>Liverpool & London & Globe Ins. Co. v. Gunther</i>, 116 U.S. 113 (decided December 25, 1885) (was this case really “filed” on December 25, as Westlaw has it?): No, this case did not concern the raise given by Scrooge to Bob Cratchit being in violation of some wage and price control (actually that was on December 26), but is a boring matter dealing with expenses of a suit and trustees of a railroad. Sorry, it was the only December 25 case I could find!
