The taxation of property of railroad companies in California as affected by the Fourteenth amendment of the federal constitution Opinions of Justice Field and Judge Sawyer, delivered in the U.S. Circuit court at San Francisco, September 17, 1883. [Printed from a revised and official copy.]

The Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution was adopted on July 9, 1868 as one of the Reconstruction Amendments. The amendment addresses citizenship rights and equal protection of the laws, and was proposed in response to issues related to former slaves following the American Civil War. The amendment was bitterly contested, particularly by Southern states, which were forced to ratify it in order for them to regain representation in the Congress. The Fourteenth Amendment, particularly its first section, is one of the most litigated parts of the Constitution, forming the basis for landmark decisions such as Roe v. Wade (1973), regarding abortion, and Bush v. Gore (2000), regarding the 2000 presidential election. The amendment limits the actions of all state and local officials, including those acting on behalf of such an official. Read more about the far-reaching effects of this amendment in this direct transcription of the court proceedings of September 17, 1883 in San Francisco.
