Book Overview
Rudger Clawson, Plaintiff In Error, Vs. The United States, Defendant In Error: Brief For Plaintiff In Error, presents the legal arguments in the case of Rudger Clawson before the United States Supreme Court. This document offers insight into the legal battles surrounding anti-polygamy laws in the late 19th century and the clash between religious freedom and federal law.
The brief details the arguments presented by Clawson's legal team, including Franklin S. Richards and Wayne MacVeagh, as they challenged the constitutionality of the laws under which Clawson was convicted. This historical legal document is invaluable for understanding the complex issues surrounding religious pluralism, federal authority, and individual rights during a pivotal era in American history. A vital resource for legal scholars, historians, and anyone interested in the ongoing debate over religious liberty in the United States.
