Description and Table of Contents

Description

After providing a brief background of the Dakota Territory's settling, creation of a Territorial government in 1862, and entry into statehood as North Dakota in 1889, Leahy serves up a detailed study of the cases and events that give that state's constitution's 13 articles their current form. Every section of every article receives commentary detailing the significant acts that lead to its current juridical interpretation. The only book to provide such a detailed and thorough analysis of North Dakota's Constitution, Leahy's book is an invaluable resource for legal historians, practicing attorneys, regional scholars, and constitutional specialists. The book is fully referenced and includes a table of cases and an extensive bibliography.
