Uh oh. This case wasn't listed on the U.S. Supreme Court case list so I thought I should create the article. Then I just realized that this case is on Wikipedia under another name. But I have other things to work on so I don't have time right now to merge this mess.

[edit] Merged articles
- This article currently represents a merger between my own work and the excellent (and in many respects more comprehensive) work done by Coolcaesar, under the name of 'Erie R.R. Co. v. Tompkins, the edit history for which can be found here.[1] -- 8^D BD2412gab 02:27, 2005 Apr 28 (UTC)
Jeez...I'm not sure, but I think I wrote a general article under the heading "Erie doctrine" just slightly before this one in April sometime. I would like the person who wrote this to take a look at it and make edits. Keep in mind I was trying to be general enough that public could follow Erie, and I did not want to get too bogged down with citation of cases...Byrd, Hanna's Twins...etc.
[edit] =====
I am pretty sure end of the holding is wrong. It should say "Supreme Court reversed and remanded to NY Southern District Federal Court."
