What did the supreme court decide in korematsu v. united states(1944) regarding the internment of those with japanese ancestry living in the united states? science forums?

The Supreme Court case Korematsu vs. United States determined that the internment of Japanese-American citizens during World War II was indeed constitutional (legal). The judges voted 6-3 in favor of the American government.

In this case, the majority opinion essentially argued that protecting American society against espionage( aka spying by the Japanese) outweighed the rights of Japanese-American citizens. Ultimately, it came down to the fact that the nations security was at risk and this was more important than the individual liberties of Japanese-American citizens.
