Gaston Monnerville

Gaston Monnerville (2 January 1897 – 7 November 1991) was a French politician and lawyer.〔(Biography in French on the Web site of the Assemblée Nationale )〕
==Biography==
The grandson of a slave, he grew up in French Guiana and went to Toulouse to complete his studies. A brilliant student, he became a lawyer in 1918 and worked with César Campinchi, a lawyer who later became an influential politician. He joined the Radical Party and was elected Deputy from French Guiana in 1932. He was Undersecretary of State for the Colonies in the Chautemps government of 1937-1938.
During the first part of World War II, he served in the French Navy, on the battleship ''Provence''. He was not demobilized till 17 July 1940, well after the French defeat by Germany, and therefore did not vote on the grant of dictatorial powers to Marshal Pétain. He protested against the armistice signed by Pétain, and complained about the treatment of French colonial subjects by Petain's Vichy government. In late 1940, he joined ''Combat'', one of the major groups in the resistance. As a lawyer in Marseille, in unoccupied France, he defended persons arrested or persecuted by the Vichy government for their opinions or racial origin. For this he was repeatedly threatened or arrested by the Vichy police.
When Germany occupied the rest of France in 1942, he went underground, and joined the ''Maquis'' of Auvergne, as "Commandant St-Just". He and his wife Cheylade established a military hospital in June 1944. That fall he was demobilized, and was appointed by the Radical Party to sit in the "Provisional Consultative Assembly" of the restored French government.
In 1945, he was appointed chairman of a commission to determine the future status of the French colonies. In October 1945, he was elected Delegate from French Guiana to the First Constituent Assembly of the Fourth Republic, and to the Second Constituent Assembly in April 1946. Also in 1946, he was a French delegate to the first session of the United Nations. He was defeated for election to the Third Constituent Assembly in November 1946, in part because some Guianans objected to his efforts to close the prison colony of Devil's Island.
Instead he was named to the Council of the Republic of France (the Senate), which was being reconstituted by appointments. He was immediately elected President of this Council, and became one of the most active members of the Senate. In March 1947, he was chosen President of the Council, by a vote of 141 to 131 over the Communist candidate.
In 1948, he changed his residence from Guiana to Lot, and was elected Senator there. He served as Senator from Lot and President of the Council until the end of the Fourth Republic in 1958.
In 1958, Monnerville supported Charles de Gaulle in returning to power, but he objected to De Gaulle's dissolution of the Fourth Republic. However, when the Fifth Republic was established, he resumed his place in the Senate (now called by that name), and was elected President of the Senate (the second highest-ranking official in France after the President) in 1959, serving until 1968.
In 1962, he famously opposed the referendum altering the constitution for changing the method of election of the president to a direct election, instead of an electoral college, on grounds that the method for constitutional amendments was not respected, a reform strongly desired by Charles de Gaulle. The Constitutional Council however ruled itself "incompetent" to strike down a reform voted by the French people.〔Alec Stone, ''The Birth of Judicial Politics in France: The Constitutional Council in Comparative Perspective'', Oxford University Press, ISBN 0-19-507034-8, chapter III〕 He went as far as to use the strong word of ''forfaiture'' ("abuse of authority") against the behaviour of Prime Minister Georges Pompidou, who had accepted to sign the referendum project 〔French Senate, ''(Le conflit du référendum de 1962 )''〕〔(Decree 62-1127 of 2 October 1962 ), preceded by a letter from Prime Minister Georges Pompidou to President Charles de Gaulle proposing him to submit to a referendum. following article 11 of the Constitution, a bill changing the method for electing the President of France.〕
From 1977 to 1983, he was a member of the Constitutional Council of France.
