16. apparently the House has seated and unseated a member before

We've been chatting about the case of Arthur Jenks and Alphonse Roy. Jenks was seated at the beginning of 1937, but the House voted to unseat him, and to seat Roy, in mid-1938. In that case it wasn't that a state case was playing out, but that the House investigation dragged on.
