Ford pardoned Nixon w/o a Charge and upheld by Supreme Court

When was the issue of Nixon's pardon brought before the Supreme Court?

Thanks. Same supreme court that okay’d baby murder? There’s just something inherently wrong with blanket pardons that do not list specific crimes. But, there it is!

Pretty sure it was never tested before the court. That’s why I say it was not a precedent.
