1867, first US Supreme Court reversal of a Nevada decision

Ex Parte Crandall 1 Nev 294 may be the first Nevada Supreme Court decision ever reversed by the U. S. Supreme Court.  Nevada became a state in 1864 and in 1865 the legislature imposed a tax of one dollar on every person leaving the state by common carrier.  The US Supreme Court found this to be a violation of the commerce clause.
