View this case - free  

Overview: There was no waiver of sovereign immunity under 28 U.S.C.S. §§ 1331, 1343(a)(4) and the court lacked jurisdiction over a citizen's complaint against the U.S. Supreme Court and its Clerk; however, sovereign immunity did not bar the exercise of jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C.S. § 1361, but neither the Court nor the clerk was an "agency" under § 1361.

View this case - free  

Overview: District court properly denied the corporation's motion for a new trial under Fed. R. Civ.
