Heart of Atlanta Motel, Inc. v. United States | 379 U.S. 241 (1964)
In 1964, the Heart of Atlanta Motel found itself at the heart of a landmark civil rights dispute. In Heart of Atlanta Motel versus United States, the United States Supreme Court established a foundation for the use of Congress’s Commerce Clause powers to protect civil rights.
Congress enacted the Civil Rights Act of 1964 to prohibit discrimination on the basis of race in any place of public accommodation. A place of public accommodation was defined to include, among other things, motels and restaurants if their operations substantially affect interstate commerce.

Thank u for bring this to light.

I believe the three judge panel was of the fifth circuit court of appeals, not a district court, which would have necessarily been one judge (Northern District of Georgia).

I'm sorry. I was looking at this for a school assignment and my friend took my school computer and started trolling. I've long since deleted the original comment, and I'm sorry if anyone was offended by my friend.

I wonder if you could use this court for other protected groups

[@MacKelvinEL25]

The Supreme court selectively picks it's cases. There's no guarantee they will hear every case! You have to apply via cert.
