So in other words, you are concluding that, by the fact that YOU have not personally seen it, it must not exist.

It doesn't appear that anyone has personally seen any evidence that Davis supported it.

The Supreme Court battle in the CSA Congress is covered in practically any good book on the history of the confederate government itself. You must not be reading quality material then.

And yet none of this 'quality reading material' seems to have any evidence that Davis paid more than lip-service to the establishment of a supreme court.

Sure they have. Heck, you've even seen it. As I noted previously it appears in (a) the fact that he PUBLICLY STATED his support for it and (b) that Congress took up a bill on it after that statement of support.

False. Practically any history of the matter identifies the Congress' inaction on the courts as a way of blocking Davis' desire to increase his power.
