  5. Constitutional Law — Limits on Congress's Power to Structure Adjudication Whether a proceeding that results in a grant is judicial does not depend upon the nature of the thing granted, but upon the nature of the proceeding Congress has provided for securing the grant; Congress may create rights in individuals against the United States and provide only an administrative remedy, provide a legal remedy conditioned on exhaustion of administrative remedies, give the individual the option of an administrative or a legal remedy, or provide only a legal remedy. 270 U.S. at 576

  7. Immigration — Naturalization The Constitution does not confer upon aliens a right to naturalization, but where Congress has conferred the opportunity by statute, a statutory right exists in the alien to submit his petition and evidence to a court, to have that tribunal pass upon them, and, if the requisite facts are established, to receive the certificate; there is no right to naturalization unless all statutory requirements are complied with. 270 U.S. at 577
  8. Statutory Interpretation — Construction of "All Cases" in Appellate Jurisdiction Provisions The Court of Appeals Act conferred appellate jurisdiction over final decisions of the district courts "in all cases" except those for which it provided direct review by the Supreme Court, and nothing in that Act limits the application of the all-embracing language used; a denial of review in naturalization cases would engraft an exception upon an otherwise universal rule. 270 U.S. at 576-577
  9. Immigration — Naturalization The provision of Section 3 of the Naturalization Act declaring that "exclusive jurisdiction to naturalize aliens as citizens" is conferred upon specified federal and state courts was intended to withdraw the jurisdiction previously exercised by minor state courts of record under earlier naturalization statutes; the term "exclusive" makes no reference to appellate proceedings and does not bar appellate review of naturalization orders. 270 U.S. at 578
  10. Immigration — Naturalization The remedy afforded to the Government by Section 15 of the Naturalization Act, providing for a bill in equity to cancel certificates of citizenship, is narrower in scope than the review commonly afforded by appellate courts and does not manifest a congressional intention to deny the usual method of appellate review; moreover, there is no corresponding provision affording the applicant an independent remedy for correcting errors committed in the district court. 270 U.S. at 578
  11. Immigration — Naturalization United States v. Ness does not require denial of appellate review in naturalization cases, because the question there under discussion was whether a judgment of naturalization entered by a state court barred as res judicata a proceeding brought in federal court under Section 15 to cancel the certificate, and the attention called to the absence of a provision for appeal from state court judgments admitting aliens to citizenship does not lead to a denial of appellate review of federal district court orders. 270 U.S. at 578-579

RESPONSE to questions certified by Circuit Courts of Appeals
in naturalization proceedings.
Mr. Louis Marshall, with whomMessrs. William H. Lewis,Matthew M. Levy, andEugene Untermyerwere on the brief, for petitioners.

A final decision of a United States district court rendered in a naturalization proceeding is appealable because such a proceeding is a "case" within the meaning of the Judicial Code. Such a proceeding must be regarded as a "case" in the constitutional and statutory sense of the term; otherwise our courts, from the lowest to the highest, in passing upon hundreds of thousands ofPage 569such proceedings would have acted extrajudicially. That would be in direct contravention of the rule laid down inHayburn'sCase, 2 Dall. 409;United Statesv.Ferreira, 13 How. 40;Gordonv.United States,117 U.S. 697;Baltimore Ohio R.R.Co. v.Interstate Commerce Comm.,215 U.S. 216;Muskratv.United States,219 U.S. 346;Smithv.Adams,130 U.S. 167;In re Pacific Ry. Comm., 32 F. 241.

The power to naturalize is judicial and not ministerial or clerical and cannot be delegated. That naturalization is a judicial proceeding is well settled.Sprattv.Spratt, 4 Pet. 393;Dolanv.United States, 133 F. 440;Re Symanowsski, 168 F. 978;McCarthyv.Marsh,5 N.Y. 263;Matter ofClark, 18 Barb. 444.

An order admitting an alien to citizenship has been repeatedly declared to be a judgment of the same dignity as any other judgment of a court having jurisdiction. It is an adjudication on personal status.Sprattv.Spratt, 4 Pet. 393;Campbellv.Gordon, 6 Cr. 176;Starkv.Chesapeake Ins. Co., 7 Cr. 420;Chas. Green's Sonv.Salas, 31 F. 106;United Statesv.Norsch, 42 F. 417;United Statesv.Aakervik, 180 F. 137;Tinnv.District Attorney,148 Cal. 773;Scottv.Strobach,49 Ala. 477;In re An Alien, 7 Hill 137;UnitedStatesv.Gleason, 78 F. 396, af. 90 F. 778;In reBodek, 63 F. 813.

Whenever the claim or contention of a party takes such a form that the judicial power is capable of acting upon it, then it has become a case or controversy within the meaning of these terms as used in the Constitution.Smithv.Adams,130 U.S. 167;United Statesv.Lenore, 207 F. 865;Osbornv.Bank ofUnited States, 9 Wheat. 738;Cohensv.Virginia, 6 Wheat. 264. The judicial power of the United States extends to all cases arising under the Constitution or laws of the United States and the treaties made by their authority.Chisholmv.Georgia,Page 5702 Dall. 419. A case arises under the Constitution or laws of the United States whenever its correct decision depends upon the right construction of either.Nashvillev.Cooper, 6 Wall. 247. A controversy as to rights claimed under an Act of Congress falls within the third clause of Rev. Stats., § 709, as a case wherein a title or right is claimed under a statute of the United States.Telluride Power Co. v.Rio Grande Ry.,175 U.S. 639. See alsoCookev.Avery,147 U.S. 375;Interstate CommerceComm. v.Brimson,154 U.S. 447.

We call attention to a large number of instances in which various of the circuit courts of appeals, as well as this Court, have entertained appellate jurisdiction with respect to judgments in naturalization proceedings where cases have been brought up either by the petitioner or the United States on writ of error or by appeal. SeeUnited Statesv.Lenore, 207 F. 865.

It was not necessary for Congress to provide in the Naturalization Law for a direct review in order that final decisions of a district court in naturalization proceedings may be appealable.United Statesv.Ness,245 U.S. 319, is not authority for such a proposition.

Section 15 of the Naturalization Act of 1906 provides for a method, at the suit of the Government, of cancellation of naturalization certificates illegally obtained. As shown above, numerous appeals have been taken in such proceedings. There is nothing in this section which expressly authorizes such appeals. Yet the right of either party to appeal from a final decision in such a proceeding does not seem to be questioned. It is submitted that there is no difference in substance between such a proceeding and the original proceeding for naturalization, and if an appeal is proper in one case, it must be proper in the other.

The right to become a citizen is a matter of the utmost moment to the petitioner in naturalization proceedings.Page 571Upon the granting or denial of his petition depend his status and the most important civil and political rights. If denied, he continues to be an alien; he cannot exercise the rights of citizenship; he is deprived of the protection incident to citizenship. In most States he cannot vote or participate in the affairs of government, and in many States he is debarred from becoming an incorporator or director of companies or the owner of real property. In many parts of the country he cannot be employed on public works; he is not permitted to practice law, however qualified he may be, or to engage in various kinds of business as to which by statutory enactment citizenship is made an essential qualification. He is subjected to a multitude of inconveniences and discriminatory regulations. If, therefore, he has shown himself entitled to naturalization, and that right is denied to him, he certainly would be deprived of the most precious right that an inhabitant of the United States can possibly possess; and if such right can be withheld from him by the determination of a single judge, his further deprivation of his right to review such determination would result not only in grave injustice to the individual but in a distinct injury to the public. Moreover, it might occasion, in some sections of the country, a wholesale denial of the right of naturalization. The only safeguard against such a course resides in the right of appeal.In re Fordiani,98 Conn. 435.

That it was not considered necessary to have a specific provision in the Act of 1906 authorizing appeals becomes evident from a consideration of the debate in the Committee of the Whole referred to in the note on page 326 of the opinion inUnitedStatesv.Ness,245 U.S. 319. Subsequent to the decision in that case, this Court, in effect, entertained jurisdiction of an appeal like that taken in the present cases.Ozawav.UnitedStates,260 U.S. 178.Page 572

If the requirements of the statute are met, then naturalization is a right and not a favor.United Statesv.Shanahan, 232 F. 169;United Statesv.Jorgenson, 241 F. 412;Sprattv.Spratt, 4 Pet. 393.

In a petition or proceeding for naturalization of aliens, the court is vested with a legal, but not a personal discretion to determine whether an alien is qualified for admission to citizenship.United Statesv.Hrasky,240 Ill. 560;UnitedStatesv.Kichin, 276 F. 818;In re Fordiani,98 Conn. 435;United Statesv.Vogel, 262 F. 262. See also,Sprattv.Spratt, 4 Pet. 393;Re Symanowsski, 168 F. 978;ReClark, 18 Barb. 444;Davisv.Boston Ry.,235 Mass. 482.Assistant to the Attorney General Donovan, with whomSolicitor General MitchellandMr. Franklin G. Wixonwere on the brief, for the United States.

The preponderance of decisions in state and lower federal courts is adverse to the right of appeal.

Section 128 of the Judicial Code does not extend to the cases at bar.United Statesv.Dolla, 177 F. 101;Muskratv.United States,219 U.S. 346.

Doubts certainly exist as to the "finality" of such a decision as that here involved. Whether a decision favorable to the alien, admitting him to citizenship, is or is not "final" is not the question in these cases. Presumably such a decision is final. But with regard to a decision unfavorable to the alien, (which is the question here involved,) different considerations arise. His application may have been denied, or consideration of it may have been postponed, for some temporary reason, not going to the merits. He may be debarred because he has not "behaved as a man of good moral character" during the five years preceding his application. In that event, it would seem that the action of the court in denying his application will not prevent him from applying again after the lapse of another five years.In reGuliano, 156 F. 420;Page 573In re Argento, 159 F. 498;In re Centi, 217 F. 833;Gassolav.Commanding Officer, 248 F. 1001;In rePollock, 257 F. 350. There is a conflict of opinion as to the power of a court to add to its denial of an application a clause providing that the applicant shall be "forever debarred" from again applying for citizenship.In re Kornstein, 268 F. 172;State ex rel. Weiszv.District Court,61 Mont. 427;Marxv.United States, 276 F. 295.

Naturalization proceedings, it is true, have been entrusted to the courts (both state and federal) since the beginning; and this grant of power to the judiciary is clearly constitutional.Holmgrenv.United States,217 U.S. 509. The control of naturalization proceedings is therefore within the legitimate scope of the judicial power; and such proceedings may be classed as "cases and controversies" within the meaning of the Constitution. But the word "case," like any other word, may have one meaning when used in the Constitution and quite another when used in a statute.Lamarv.United States,240 U.S. 60. A hearing on a petition for naturalization may be a "case" to which the constitutional power of the courts may extend; and it may still not constitute a "case" which is appealable under § 128 of the Judicial Code. In many naturalization cases, it may happen that no appearance is entered against the applicant.In reMudarri, 176 F. 465. In nearly all such cases, the decision of the district court is based largely upon a personal scrutiny of the applicant and his witnesses, upon the manner in which they answer the questions put to them, upon their frankness and intelligence, and upon many other such elements, none of which can be crystallized in a bill of exceptions or adequately weighed by any appellate tribunal.

The decisions of this Court, and the legislative history of the Act of 1906, show that no right of appeal exists.Johannessenv.United States,225 U.S. 227;United Statesv.Ness,245 U.S. 319;Luriav.United States,Page 574231 U.S. 9; 40 Cong. Rec. part 8, pp. 7786-7787. Congress not merely failed to provide a remedy by appeal in naturalization cases, but, having specifically considered the very point, deliberately refused to make such a provision.

It is urged by opposing counsel that if there is a right of appeal under § 15, there must also be a right of appeal in the cases at bar. Proceedings for cancellation under § 15, however, are materially different from original petitions for naturalization.Luriav.United States,231 U.S. 9;UnitedStatesv.Ness,245 U.S. 319. InOzawav.United States,260 U.S. 178, the question as to jurisdiction was not raised at any stage of the case. SeeWebsterv.Fall,266 U.S. 507.

The courts enumerated in § 13 of the Act of 1906 have "exclusive jurisdiction" to naturalize aliens. The terms of the Act are mandatory. No court save those enumerated may naturalize any aliens. Even judges of those courts may not exercise the power at chambers or in any place save in open court.UnitedStatesv.Ginsberg,243 U.S. 472.
MR. JUSTICE BRANDEIS delivered the opinion of the Court.
These cases present, by certificate, the question whether the circuit courts of appeals have jurisdiction to review a decree or order of a federal district court denying the petition of an alien to be admitted to citizenship in the United States.

The existence of the jurisdiction was assumed by this court, without discussion, inOzawav.United States,260 U.S. 178. It has been exercised by the courts of appeals in most of the circuits.1In the Fifth Circuit,Page 575jurisdiction was denied inUnited Statesv.Dolla, 177 F. 101. Although the correctness of that decision was questioned by Judge Amidon inUnited Statesv.Lenore, 207 F. 865, 869, and by Judge Hough inUnited Statesv.Mulvey, 232 F. 513, 521-2, it has been followed in the Third Circuit and in the Eighth.2In the state courts judgments granting or denying petitions for naturalization have generally been held to be reviewable on appeal, like other cases.3

The "jurisdiction to naturalize aliens as citizens of the United States" is conferred by Act of June 29, 1906, c. 3592, § 3,34 Stat. 596, upon the district courts, among others. Jurisdiction to review the "final decision in thePage 576district courts . . . in all cases," except as otherwise provided, was conferred by Act of March 3, 1891, c. 517, § 6,26 Stat. 826, 828, upon circuit courts of appeals. This provision was re-enacted in Judicial Code, § 128, and by Act of February 13, 1925, c. 229,43 Stat. 936, in § 128(a). The order granting or denying a petition for naturalization is clearly a final decision within the meaning of that section.Ex parte Tiffany,252 U.S. 32. This is true, although a certificate granted may be cancelled under § 15 of the Naturalization Act,United Statesv.Ness,245 U.S. 319, and a denial of the petition may not preclude another application for naturalization.In re Pollock, 257 F. 350. CompareSalingerv.Loisel,265 U.S. 224,230. The substantial question is whether a petition for naturalization is a case within the meaning of the Courts of Appeals Act.

The function of admitting to citizenship has been conferred exclusively upon courts continuously since the foundation of our Government. See Act of March 26, 1790, c. 3,1 Stat. 103. The federal district courts, among others, have performed that function since the Act of January 29, 1795, c. 20,1 Stat. 414. The constitutionality of this exercise of jurisdiction has never been questioned. If the proceeding were not a case or controversy within the meaning of Art. III, § 2, this delegation of power upon the courts would have been invalid.Hayburn's Case, 2 Dall. 409;United Statesv.Ferreira, 13 How. 40;Muskratv.United States,219 U.S. 346. Whether a proceeding which results in a grant is a judicial one, does not depend upon the nature of the thing granted, but upon the nature of the proceeding which Congress has provided for securing the grant. The United States may create rights in individuals against itself and provide only an administrative remedy.United Statesv.Babcock,250 U.S. 328,331. It may provide a legal remedy, but make resort to the courts availablePage 577only after all administrative remedies have been exhausted. CompareNew Orleansv.Paine,147 U.S. 261;United Statesv.Sing Tuck,194 U.S. 161;American Steel Foundriesv.Robertson,262 U.S. 209. It may give to the individual the option of either an administrative or a legal remedy. CompareClydev.United States, 13 Wall. 38;Chorpenningv.UnitedStates,94 U.S. 397,399. Or it may provide only a legal remedy. CompareTurnerv.United States,248 U.S. 354. Whenever the law provides a remedy enforceable in the courts according to the regular course of legal procedure, and that remedy is pursued, there arises a case within the meaning of the Constitution, whether the subject of the litigation be property or status. A petition for naturalization is clearly a proceeding of that character.

The petitioner's claim is one arising under the Constitution and laws of the United States. The claim is presented to the court in such a form that the judicial power is capable of acting upon it. The proceeding is instituted and is conducted throughout according to the regular course of judicial procedure. The United States is always a possible adverse party. By § 11 of the Naturalization Act the full rights of a litigant are expressly reserved to it. SeeIn re Mudarri, 176 F. 465. Its contentions are submitted to the court for adjudication. SeeSmithv.Adams,130 U.S. 167,173-174. Section 9 provides that every final hearing must be held in open court; that upon such hearing the applicant and witnesses shall be examined under oath before the court and in its presence; and that every final order must be made under the hand of the court and shall be entered in full upon the record. The judgment entered, like other judgments of a court of record, is accepted as complete evidence of its own validity unless set aside.Campbellv.Gordon, 6 Cranch 176;Sprattv.Spratt, 4 Pet. 393, 408. It may not be collaterally attacked.Pintsch Compressing Co.Page 578v.Bergin, 84 F. 140. If a certificate is procured when the prescribed qualifications have no existence in fact, it may be cancelled by suit. "It is in this respect," as stated inJohannessenv.United States,225 U.S. 227,238, "closely analogous to a public grant of land (Rev. Stat., § 2289, etc.,) or of the exclusive right to make, use and vend a new and useful invention (Rev. Stat., § 4883, etc.)."

The opportunity to become a citizen of the United States is said to be merely a privilege and not a right. It is true that the Constitution does not confer upon aliens the right to naturalization. But it authorizes Congress to establish a uniform rule therefor. Art. I, § 8, cl. 4. The opportunity having been conferred by the Naturalization Act, there is a statutory right in the alien to submit his petition and evidence to a court, to have that tribunal pass upon them, and, if the requisite facts are established, to receive the certificate. SeeUnited Statesv.Shanahan, 232 F. 169, 171. There is, of course, no "right to naturalization unless all statutory requirements are compiled with."United Statesv.Ginsberg,243 U.S. 472,475;Luriav.United States,231 U.S. 9,22. The applicant for citizenship, like other suitors who institute proceedings in a court of justice to secure the determination of an asserted right, must allege in his petition the fulfilment of all conditions upon the existence of which the alleged right is made dependent; and he must establish these allegations by competent evidence to the satisfaction of the court.In re Bodek, 63 F. 813, 814, 815;In re an Alien, 7 Hill (N.Y.) 137. In passing upon the application the court exercises judicial judgment. It does not confer or withhold a favor.

The Government contends that, at all events, a naturalization proceeding is not a case within the meaning of the Court of Appeals Act. The same phrase may, of course, have different meanings when used in differentPage 579connections.Lamarv.United States,240 U.S. 60,65. The Constitution does not require that a litigant be afforded the opportunity of having every judicial decision reviewed by an appellate court. CompareRogersv.Peck,199 U.S. 425,435. But the Court of Appeals Act conferred upon that court appellate jurisdiction of final decisions of the district courts "in all cases" except those for which it provided a direct review by this Court. SeeLou Ow Bewv.United States,144 U.S. 47,57;ThePaquete Habana,175 U.S. 677,683-686. A denial of a review in naturalization cases would engraft an exception upon an otherwise universal rule. CompareCraigv.Hecht,263 U.S. 255,274-276;In re Graves, 270 F. 181. There is nothing in that Act, which should limit the application of the all-embracing language used.

It is argued that the Naturalization Act denies appellate jurisdiction, since § 3 declares that "exclusive jurisdiction to naturalize aliens as citizens" is conferred upon the federal and state courts there specified, and these do not include the circuit courts of appeals. The term "exclusive" was used in § 3 in order to withdraw the jurisdiction which minor state courts, being courts of record, had exercised under the authority conferred by earlier naturalization statutes. See House Doc. No. 46, 59th Cong., 1st sess., Ser. No. 4984, pp. 18-24. The section makes no reference to appellate proceedings. It is also argued that Congress manifested the intention of denying the usual method of appellate review by providing in § 15 for a bill in equity to cancel certificates of citizenship. The remedy afforded to the Government by § 15 is narrower in scope than the review commonly afforded by appellate courts. Moreover, there is no corresponding provision which would afford to the applicant for citizenship an independent remedy for correcting errors committed in the district court.

Since the adoption of the Constitution, Congress has by its legislation sought to promote the naturalization ofPage 580qualified resident aliens. The Act of 1906 did not introduce any change in policy. It did change, in some respects, the qualifications. And to carry out the established policy through more effective application of the law, it made changes in administrative and judicial machinery. That end is subserved by the correction of errors of the trial court through appellate review. NeitherUnited Statesv.Ness,245 U.S. 319,326, nor the history of the legislation there referred to, leads to a denial of appellate review. In that case attention was called to the fact that Congress had not provided in the Act of 1906 for an appeal from judgments of the state courts admitting aliens to citizenship. The question under discussion was whether a judgment of naturalization entered by a state court barred asresjudicataa proceeding brought in a federal court under § 15 to cancel the certificate of naturalization.

To the questions asked in the two cases, we answer that the Circuit Court of Appeals has jurisdiction to review by appeal the order or decree of the District Court denying the petition to be admitted to citizenship in the United States.Questions answered in the affirmative.
