This is a list of [[Supreme Court of the United States]] cases in the area of [[immigration law]] and [[naturalization|naturalization law]]. In the [[United States Constitution]], the [[Copyright Clause]] in Article 1, Section 8 endows [[United States Congress|Congress]] with the power to create a copyright system.
This is a list of [[Supreme Court of the United States]] cases in the area of [[immigration law]] and [[naturalization|naturalization law]].


This list is a list solely of United States Supreme Court decisions about applying immigration and naturalization law. Not all Supreme Court decisions are ultimately influential and, as in other fields, not all important decisions are made at the Supreme Court level. Many federal courts issue rulings that are significant or come to be influential, but those are outside the scope of this list.

Revision as of 15:02, 29 April 2024

This is a list of Supreme Court of the United States cases in the area of immigration law and naturalization law.

This list is a list solely of United States Supreme Court decisions about applying immigration and naturalization law. Not all Supreme Court decisions are ultimately influential and, as in other fields, not all important decisions are made at the Supreme Court level. Many federal courts issue rulings that are significant or come to be influential, but those are outside the scope of this list.
