Lopez, case in which the U.S. Supreme Court on January 22, 1975, ruled that, under the Fourteenth Amendment's due process clause, public-school students facing suspensions are entitled to notice and a hearing.
Article I, Section 8, Clause 3: The Congress shall have Power . . . To regulate Commerce with foreign Nations, and among the several States, and with the Indian Tribes; . . .
Lopez argues that section 922(q) exceeds Congress' delegated powers and violates the Tenth Amendment. The government counters that section 922(q) is a permissible exercise of Congress' power under the Commerce Clause.

In United States v. Lopez (1995), the Supreme Court ruled that Congress had exceeded its constitutional authority under the Commerce Clause when it passed a law prohibiting gun possession in local school zones.
The Framers intended the Tenth Amendment to confirm that the federal government was a limited government of enumerated powers. Any powers the Constitution does not delegate to the federal government are reserved for state and local governments.
The issue in this case is whether the Commerce Clause authorizes Congress to enact a statute that makes it a crime to possess a gun in, or near, a school. . . . In my view, the statute falls well within the scope of the commerce power as this Court has understood that power over the last half century. . . .
Except for motions made during a hearing or during trial, motions are required to be in writing. They must also be filed in court and served on the opposing party's attorney (or the party if not represented by counsel). If the motion is contested, the opposing attorneys will also file papers opposing the motion.
A judge shall not order, instruct, or otherwise direct, suggest, encourage, or request a party or attorney to dismiss and subsequently refile a case in order to avoid failure by the judge to comply with the time limits specified in this rule.
54(B), a party may file a notice of appeal within thirty days of entry of the judgment or order appealed or the judgment or order that disposes of the remaining claims.
