Best Answer

This was a case determining the constitutionality of putting Japanese Americans into "relocation" camps or internment camps. The Supreme Court decided that internment camps were constitutional because of military urgency, and that protection from espionage far outweighed Korematsu's (and thus all Japanese American's) individual rights.

Who won the US Supreme Court case Korematsu v US?

The United States won, as Fred Korematsu was not granted his appeal and was sent to an internment camp, and none of the Japanese-American's cases were looked into. This fool has no idea what he is talking about... he was not even close to knowing what really happened with Fred Korematsu. Korematsu won this as some would say "battle" against the United States. Fred Korematsu did not have to go to the internment camp.

After state supreme court what is next?

That depends on the case. Often, the state supreme court is the end of the road for a case, making the decision of the state supreme court final and binding. Sometimes cases involved federal questions (issues arising under the US Constitution or federal law) that allow them to be appealed to the US Supreme Court. If the US Supreme Court hears such a case, it may affirm or overturn the state supreme court decision.
