In Pace v. Alabama (1883), the US Supreme Court upheld an Alabama law that prohibited blacks and whites from marrying. The Supreme Court held that Alabama had a legitimate state interest in protecting the institution of marriage. Could this precedent be overturned by a federal district court? Eventually, the Supreme Court reversed its decision. Would the overturning of its own precedent by the Supreme Court violate the rule of stare decisis?
