Subject Areas: Economics, history
In the Emergency Price Control Act of 1942, Congress established a comprehensive system of administrative controls over prices, as a means of checking the inflation that accompanied America's entry into World War II. The Act created a temporary Emergency Court of Appeals, staffed by federal judges from the district courts and courts of appeals, with exclusive jurisdiction to determine the validity of price control regulations.
This collection provides a unique look into the creation and activities of the temporary Emergency Court of Appeals, staffed by federal judges from the district courts and courts of appeals, with exclusive jurisdiction to determine the validity of price control regulations. Regulated persons thus could not challenge the administrative regulations constitutionality or statutory authorization in the ordinary state or federal courts-either in injunctive proceedings or by way of defense to criminal prosecutions for their violation.
