According to William E. Leuchtenburg, along with other successors, West Coast Hotel v. Parrish was the case that constituted a constitutional revolution. Leuchtenburg lays out the main arguments of his opinion regarding the Court's change during this particular case, as well as in other subsequent cases. The importance of this case was to support the “minimum wage” legislation passed by the State of Washington even though there was the issue of “freedom of contract”. The presented case of West Coast Hotel v. Parrish caused a constitutional revolution in the United States (Leuchtenburg, p. 163). This case was not an open and shut case and met with a lot of opposition especially from Tipaldo's magazine. Accordingly, it reversed the decision made by the district court, which was based on the case Adkins v. Children's Hospital (Leuchtenburg, p. 164). Although some of Leuchtenburg's evidence in support of his view on which case constituted a constitutional revolution involved shifting the Court's decision-making process, the question of why the Court shifted must be explained. At the time, during West Coast v. Parrish, the court seemed to be somewhat fueled by politics. The justices were concerned about the consequences that might arise from their reluctance to pass standard legislation. In other words, they may have shifted their votes in hopes of saving the traditional bases. Justice Roberts' voting decisions should therefore be scrutinized carefully since he supported the liberal side in 1934 regarding Nebbia v. New York, supported the conservative side in 1935-1936 regarding the Rail Pension and Tipaldo, then returned to support...... half of the document ......urg touches on what he believes to be a “constitutional revolution”, but I don't agree with his interpretation. On the other hand, it seems to me that Leuchtenburg is arguing that the constitutional revolution occurred in a very short period of time under Roosevelt's direction. This leads me to believe that there was a great deal of pressure from Roosevelt on the judges as they arrived at so many decisions and overturned past decisions in such a short time. I believe the case of Leuchtenburg, West Coast Hotel v. Parrish, was unprecedented in establishing itself as a constitutional revolution due to the outside influences that were so prevalent during the decision-making process. Decisions surrounded by political forces and persuasion do not count as revolutionary when they are not made alone.
