The AWA empowers the courts to issue writs in furtherance of their efforts.
For instance to compel a manufacturer of safes to provide ‘safe-cracking’ information to the police. IE: the combination if they know it, or the details needed to effectively open the safe physically.

The most notorious use was compelling St Louis to raise it’s taxes to integrate it’s schools.

But it must do so in a manner agreeable to the law.

For instance to compel a manufacturer of safes to provide ‘safe-cracking’ information to the police. IE: the combination if they know it, or the details needed to effectively open the safe physically.

Do you think the Writ Act could be used to order the safe company to build a device that could crack their safe?

The most notorious use was compelling St Louis to raise it’s taxes to integrate it’s schools.

Sounds like they forgot the requirement that it be agreeable to the law.
