Mitsuye Endo, an American citizen, was relocated to Tule Lake Relocation Center and then at Topaz Relocation Center. In 1944, attorneys argued before the U.S. Supreme Court on her behalf. The court rules that the War Relocation Authority may have to detain other classes of citizens, but it has no authority to subject citizens who are concededly loyal to its leave procedure. ID: A Black and white photograph of a Japanese-American woman, wearing a white dress, with her dark hair in shoulder-length curls, seated at a desk with her hands on a typewriter.
