American Fur Co. v. United States : ウィキペディア英語版 | American Fur Co. v. United States
, was a United States Supreme Court case in which the Court held that the American Fur Company agent's acts and statements bound the company; that all goods were subject to seizure and forfeiture; but that the instructions on where in Indian territory the seizure could be made was in error to the point that a new trial was required. ==Background== On September 24, 1824, a licensed Indian trader, William H. Wallace, was caught with seven kegs of whiskey and one keg of shrub among his goods he had for trade with the Indians.〔''American Fur Co. v. United States'', 27 U.S. (2 Pet.) 358, 362 (1829); , 232 (2011).〕 The local District Attorney moved for the district court to forfeit all of the goods to the government, and following a trial in which John Davis, an employee of Wallace, testified about the alcohol, the jury agreed and forfeited the goods to government.〔''American Fur Co.'', 27 U.S. at 363; ''see also'' Mark Moller, ''Article: Class Action Defendants' New Lochnerism'', 2012 319, 351 (2012).〕
