Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Relations Between the United States and Porto Rico: Juridical Aspects Downes v. Bidwell.80 This is really the most important judgment in all the Insular Cases so far as a determination of the present status of Porto Rico is concerned. It is interesting because in it the now famous doctrine of non-incorporation is developed. It will be well, however, to state at the outset that in this case there was no majority opinion of the court and that the decision was reached merely by the concurrence of a majority of the judges in what is styled in the sylla bus of the case as the conclusion and judgment of the court.
