supreme court decision based on the 27th amendment?

Answer 1

So far, the Supreme Court has not interpreted the 27th Amendment. In fact, only one case has reached the merits of a 27th Amendment claim. In Boehner v. Anderson, 30 F.3d 156 (D.C. Cir. 1994), the Circuit Court for the District of Columbia found that the Ethics Reform Act of 1989, which allowed for cost-of-living adjustments to congressmen's pay, did not violate the 27th Amendment. The court affirmed the decision of the district court, 809 F.Supp. 138 (D.D.C. 1992).

Answer 2

There has been none. The highest courts to hear a 27th Amendment case have been the U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in the D.C. Circuit and the 10th Circuit.

Answer 3

Regarding what aspect?

The only federal court cases I can find that even address the 27th deal with the cost of living adjustment provision of Ethics Reform Act of 1989 (three years before the amendment was ratified).

Answer 4

The XXVII amendment reads: No law, varying the compensation for the services of the Senators and Representatives, shall take effect until an election of Representatives shal have intervened.

This basically means, if congress votes themselves a raise, they have to get re-elected to receive it. I don't know of any Supreme court cases related to congressional pay raises.
