15 ORIG | SCOTUS | May 27, 1963
ALABAMA ET AL.
v.
UNITED STATES ET AL.
Supreme Court of United States.
J. Kirkman Jackson, John P. Kohn, George Stephen Leonard, Richard L. Hirshberg, John W. Vardaman, John A. Caddell and Thos. B. Hill, Jr. for plaintiffs.
Solicitor General Cox, Ralph S. Spritzer and Louis F. Claiborne for the United States et al.
PER CURIAM.
The motion for leave to file the proposed bill of complaint, as amended, is denied. In essence the papers show no more than that the President has made ready to exercise the authority conferred upon him by 10 U. S. C. § 333 by alerting and stationing military personnel in the Birmingham area. Such purely preparatory measures and their alleged adverse general effects upon the plaintiffs afford no basis for the granting of any relief.
MR. JUSTICE WHITE took no part in the consideration or decision of this case.
