Answer:
In Korematsu v. United States (1944), the federal exclusion order that forced Japanese Americans into relocation camps was deemed constitutional because it was issued under an executive order.
Explanation:
- During the attack on Pearl Harbor in 1942, President Roosevelt issued an executive order 9066 under which the Americans military department was authorized for creating the military base in those areas where they are excluded.
- In lieu of this, a 23 year old Japanese American refused to leave exclusion Zone and went to challenge the Fifth amendment act of America.
- By the Supreme Court, it was opined that they were not excluded on the basis of racial discrimination but due to military urgency and after all things got normalised they were sent back to their native places.
- Korematsu argued that the Fifth Amendment was unconstitutional and also went to plastic surgery to hid his identity. He also violated the Civilian Exclusion order no 34 for which he was granted Certiorari in the court.
