Ex Parte Guiseppe Gilletti

Summary

The Supreme Court of Florida held that the title of Chapter 6877 sufficiently encompasses the oyster‑licensing provision, that the license tax on aliens and non‑residents does not violate the Florida Constitution, treaty rights, or the Equal Protection Clause, and therefore remanded the petitioners. The Court emphasized legislative discretion in drafting titles and upheld the state's authority to favor its citizens in regulating public fish resources.
