NotableSupreme Court Decision regarding veterans getting job back
NewspaperMar 15, 1949Dallas Morning News-15 Mar. 1949-”Another Court Trip Likely For Houghton’s Job Suit- Sebe J. Houghton Jr.’s suit for reinstatement in his prearmy job as president
of an insurance company appeared Monday to be headed for a new trip through Federal Appellate Courts. Federal Judge William H. Atwell Monday awarded Houghton $4,800-one year’s salary- but refused to order the Texas State Life insurance Company to reinstate him. Asst. United States Atty. William Cantrell Jr. representing Houghton under provisions of the Selective Service Act said he probably would appeal the decision. Houghton’s case already has been to the Supreme Court of the United States. Last October that court ordered a new trial in Judge Atwell’s court. Houghton left the presidency of the firm in the spring of 1942 to enter the army. When he asked for his job back in the spring of 1946, the directors turned him down. He brought suit under the law which says a veteran is entitled to his old job back. In October, 1946, Judge Atwell ruled the job was an elective one and that the company didn’t have to rehire him. Houghton appealed. The Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals in New Orleans a year ago overruled Judge
Atwell, and ordered a new trial. The company appealed. The Supreme Court upheld the appellate court and ordered a new trial.”

Houghton v. Texas State Life Insurance Co., 5 Cir., 166 F.2d 848; Spearmon v. Thompson, 8 Cir., 167 F.2d 626, 630:

Veteran who, prior to military service, was director and president of insurance company, was entitled to restoration over objection of board of directors that position was to be filled by election under charter and laws of state and courts were without authority to interfere; but since presidency is for one year which had passed, veteran could recover year's salary.
