QPQ: Done.

Overall:

Passes DYK checklist. No picture used. Both hooks have been verified as sourced. I like original. Earwig's copy violation detector did spotlight possible violations, but I think this is because of commonly used phrases in the literature discussing the Supreme Court reasoning on the issue. I did discuss this with the article's creator. 7&6=thirteen (☎) 17:03, 28 August 2015 (UTC)
