I,,,;on az the extent Of its judicial power. -"
That II /, true that the supreme court
basno appellate jurisdiction by Urlh q error
- ANIMAL from such a tribunal. Ibis IS
oonsliv true in respect TO the district Or cir
c5it courts Of the United States when in
tbe exercise Of criminal jurisdiction, But
the writ of error or appeal is only q form,
and it WAS competent for congress to invohe
the appellate power by other modes.
/. That this appellate power is invoked
by the judicial act Of 1883, which expressly
conlers upon the court the right to issue the
writ Of habeas corpus in all cases where a
civilian is imprisoned under or by order OF
the authority Of the United States
D. That this act does not specify the caseSS
to which it is to be applied, or the MODE f.,i =,
Of its application, and intends that y '"yI
be used IN this country as it was 70 HnB anu
when the constitution was adop'ed,
6. That in England it va issued oy 81,
perior courts to all inferi'' ul'a Wv -
whatever character, aTI "F''"S' ,"e 1'''''o'
ity Of the King nor ne i'''l '00N''' 'o"''
prevent It's exercise Gnu
I'D Ear treas,n in the Circuit Court Of this
ni.,ric, ne Court had awarded the writ Of
t.I , Corpus, Though they had no reyisory |
og[r over that court in criminal cases, by |
dg,ror, on appeal, holding that If the power
lid not exist in this court il existed in none,
IS the same words in the act conferred it
alike on all.
3. That in the case Of MiligPn recently
ecided) this court held that the Circuit
'ourt Of the United States had the power to
,sue the writ for the purpose of dischareing
prisoner held under conviction by n mill,
lry tribunal, and if the power existed in
be Circuit Court the same power exists in
be Supreme Court.
Q. That the Court is not called on to ex
-cise appellate power by way Of rerisiHq or
.rersiRg the Judgment Of the military court,
At only to inquire into the cause Of the i'm.
'isonment, which is but the effect of the
dgment, and so &C! colIaterally upon the
dgmeut itself
The argument Of the Attorney General
as confined to the proposition that mill
ry court can exercise no part of the judi
al power conferred by the Constitution 20
to bring it within the jurisdiction Of the
lp-eme Court in any form,
The case is one Of great interest, as this
the FIRST time the question in its present
pect has been presented
