 decision by the Supreme Court of the United States that
   decided that the X should be classified under customs
regulations as a Y rather than a Z. The Court's unanimous
 opinion held that the Tariff Act of 1883 used the ordinary
   meaning of the words ―Z" and ―Y", under which a X is
 classified as a Y. The Tariff Act of March 3, 1883 required
  a tax to be paid on imported Y, but not Z. The case was
   filed as an action by John Nix, John W. Nix, George W.
       Nix, and Frank W. Nix against Edward L. Hedden,
 Collector of the Port of New York, to recover back duties
                      paid under protest.
