2 Feb 1819 Jahr - Dartmouth College v. Woodward

Beschreibung:

Dartmouth College v. Woodward, decided in 1819 by the U.S. Supreme Court, was a seminal case in which the Court ruled that Dartmouth College's charter granted by King George III was a contract, which the New Hampshire legislature could not alter without the college's consent. This decision significantly expanded the definition of contract to include corporate charters, thereby restricting state governments' ability to interfere with private corporations.
