why reargued? edit

Latest comment: 2 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

gibson was one of a series of cases about the naacp's membership lists, notably

naacp v alabama ex rel patterson 1960, also bates v little rock, gremillion v. louisiana.

i came to wikipedia to find out why the case was relisted and did not decided until 1963, but nothing here but a stub.

facts from oyez.org:

Facts of the case In the wake of the Supreme Court's ruling in Brown v. Board of Education, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) received much criticism from state legislators as it pushed ahead with litigation to combat segregation. The State of Florida, in 1959, established a Legislative Investigation Committee to study what were called "subversive organizations." Gibson, president of the Miami branch of the NAACP, was subpoenaed before the committee and asked to produce a membership list of his organization. He refused and was found in contempt.

it was a 5-4 decision which might have had something to do with why it was reargued. this might have been when justice white joined the court, or some other change in personnel; maybe it split 4-4 at first.
