Description: Greg v Georgia is a landmark U.S. Supreme Court case in which it was held that death penalty for murder was not in and of itself a cruel and unusual punishment prohibited by the Eighth and Fourteenth Amendments. This copy of the opinion -- made available at the Court on the day the decision was announced contains all the separate opinions issued by the various members of the Court and I guarantee it is authentic -- based on a decades long career at the Court. In good condition. Hole punched and notation in right uppeor corner -- otherwise no wirting. It is an unique and perishable copy of the case -- few have likely survived -- and a unique opportunity to hold a piece of history. Item ships fully insured via priority mail. Several days after an opinion is announced by the Court, it is printed in a 6" x 9" self-cover pamphlet called a "slip opinion." Each slip opinion consists of the majority or plurality opinion, any concurring or dissenting opinions, and the syllabus. It may contain corrections not appearing in the bench opinion. Slip opinion page proofs are sent to a commercial printing company under contract with the GPO, and the company prints the slip opinions in accordance with the Court's specifications. The slip opinion pamphlets are distributed free of charge, while supplies last, by the Court's Public Information Office. They are also sold by the GPO. The text of each slip opinion is also disseminated electronically via posting on this website, usually within minutes after the opinion is announced. Slip opinions remain posted here until the opinions for an entire Term are published in the bound volumes of the U. S. Reports. The number of slip opinions varies each Term, but is generally fewer than 100.
