[221] 287 U.S. 1 (1932). This case involved an unsuccessful attempt to enjoin an election of representatives in Congress in Mississippi because the districts formed by the legislature for that purpose were not a contiguous and compact territory and of equal population and that the redistricting violated article I, § 4 and the Fourteenth Amendment. The Court held that the provisions of the Reapportionment Act of 1929 did not reenact the requirements of the act of 1911 and that it was therefore unnecessary to determine whether the questions raised were justiciable.
[222] 285 U.S. 355 (1932). Here the Court held that the act of the Minnesota legislature redistricting the State required the governor's signature, and that representatives should be chosen at large until a redistricting was passed.
