No. 50
Argued November 7-8, 1905
Decided November 27, 1905
199 U.S. 401
Syllabus
Section 1754 of the Iowa Code of 1897, prohibiting combinations of insurance companies as to rates, commissions, and manner of transacting business, is not unconstitutional as depriving the companies of their property or of their liberty of contract within the meaning of the Fourteenth Amendment, and the auditor of the state will not be enjoined from enforcing the provisions of the statute.
A company lawfully doing business in a state is no more bound by a general unconstitutional enactment than a citizen of that state.
The facts are stated in the opinion. chanrobles.com-red
