Bell v. Hood | 327 U.S. 678 (1946)

Federal district courts have original jurisdiction over civil actions arising under the United States Constitution or federal statutes. This is called federal-question jurisdiction. But do federal courts retain jurisdiction if the civil action is based on a federal law that doesn’t expressly provide for the relief the plaintiff is seeking? The United States Supreme Court answered this question in Bell versus Hood.

Federal Bureau of Investigation agent R.B. Hood and other bureau agents searched the homes of Arthur Bell and his associates. The agents then arrested Bell and others and seized some of their property without obtaining warrants. Bell and his associates subsequently sued the agents in federal district court for money damages based on violations of their Fourth and Fifth Amendment rights against unreasonable search and seizure and deprivation of liberty without due process.

The district court dismissed for lack of jurisdiction, and the Ninth Circuit affirmed. Bell then appealed to the United States Supreme Court.
