Farrington v. Tokushige
1927 United States Supreme Court case
Farrington v. Tokushige, 273 U.S. 284 (1927), was a case in which the Supreme Court of the United States unanimously struck down the Territory of Hawaii's law, making it illegal for schools to teach foreign languages without a permit, as it violated the due process clause of the Fifth Amendment.[1] Violation of the due process clause under the 14th Amendment was not considered as Hawaii was a territory of the United States at the time.
