Supreme Court of the United States

Beneficial National Bank v. Anderson — Scalia, J., Dissenting

June 2, 2003539 U.S. 1

Summary

Justice Scalia dissents, arguing the Court's holding violates the well-pleaded-complaint rule by allowing removal of state-law usury claims against national banks based solely on their invalidity under federal law rather than federal question jurisdiction on the face of the complaint.
