Recent U.S. Supreme Court Decisions

Soto v. United States (June 12, 2025)

A law providing combat-related special compensation to qualifying veterans confers authority to settle CRSC claims, so the settlement procedures and limitations established under the Barring Act do not apply to claims for CRSC payments.

Rivers v. Guerrero (June 12, 2025)

In general, once the district court has entered its judgment with respect to a first federal habeas petition, a second-in-time application qualifies as “second or successive” and is thus properly subject to the requirements of 28 U.S.C. § 2244(b).

Martin v. United States (June 12, 2025)

The law enforcement proviso in the Federal Tort Claims Act overrides only the intentional-tort exception. Meanwhile, the Supremacy Clause does not provide a defense in FTCA lawsuits.

Parrish v. United States (June 12, 2025)

A litigant who files a notice of appeal after the original deadline but before the court reopens the time to appeal does not need to file a second notice after reopening.

Commissioner v. Zuch (June 12, 2025)

The U.S. Tax Court does not have jurisdiction to hear a taxpayer's appeal under 26 U.S.C. § 6330 once the possibility of a levy is off the table.

A. J. T. v. Osseo Area Schools, Independent School Dist. No. 279 (June 12, 2025)
