The so-called "pocket veto" dates at least as far back as the presidency of James Madison, but the constitutionality of its use had not been considered by the Supreme Court until Okanogan, Methow, San Poels...Indians v. the United States was decided in 1929, during the last year of Chief Justice Taft's tenure. Despite responding to a situation in American Indian Law, the Pocket Veto Case is notable for the fact its final decision had nothing whatsoever to do with Indian Law. The Okanogan Tribe is barely mentioned at all in the Court's unanimous opinion, delivered by Justice Edward Sanford, which ultimately concluded that the pocket veto is a constitutional exercise of presidential authority"-- CN - KF5067 .L87 2022eb SN - 9780700633401 SN - 0700633405 SN - 9780700633395 KW - Pocket veto : United States : Cases.
