United States v. Ju Toy
1. For what it's worth, I would rank this case quite high on my list of Shameful decisions. A disgrace.
2. There are 268 opinions (as of October 2019) that cite this decision. Per Westlaw, zero constitute "negative treatment."
3. The case of Avina v. Brownell, 112 F.Supp. 15 (S.D. Tex. 1953) discusses Congress decision in 1940 to provide putative citizens with greater procedural protections and its revocation of that liberalization in 1952.
4. What happens today if you, a citizen, go to, say, Mexico and return but are denied entry by an ICE officer who does not believe you are a citizen? Can you appeal to an Article III judge? Can you get habeas relief? Do the research.
