Summary

The Court held that the 1959 Sunday Closing Law (chapter 119) repealed and superseded the earlier 1951 revision, and that, when viewed as an independent statute, it does not violate the Equal Protection Clause. Accordingly, the trial court’s denial of summary judgment was affirmed, the judgment on pleadings was reversed, and the case was remanded for further proceedings. The decision was joined by a concurrence and opposed by a dissent.
