West Coast Hotel Co. v. Parrish 300 U.S. 379 (1937) was a decision by the United States Supreme Court upholding the constitutionality of minimum wage legislation enacted by the State of Washington overturning an earlier decision in Adkins v. Children’s Hospital 261 U.S. 525 (1923). The decision is usually regarded as having ended the Lochner era a period in American legal history during which the Supreme Court tended to invalidate legislation aimed at regulating business.
