End of the Line: Winston Wins Unanimous Supreme Court Victory Against NJ Transit

In a unanimous decision authored by Justice Sotomayor, the U.S. Supreme Court held that NJ Transit is not an arm of the State of New Jersey and therefore is not entitled to sovereign immunity. The ruling means that plaintiffs injured by NJ Transit outside of New Jersey—such as in Pennsylvania and New York—may pursue claims in the courts of the states where their injuries occurred. The court adopted Winston’s position that state-created corporations that are formally liable for their own judgments are not arms of the state, reversing the Pennsylvania Supreme Court’s dismissal of Cedric Galette’s negligence suit while affirming the New York Court of Appeals’ decision allowing Jeffrey Colt’s case to proceed....Read more

Brett Johnson Discusses Federal Circuit’s PTAB Review Decisions with Law360

Winston & Strawn partner Brett Johnson was quoted in a Law360 article examining the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit’s recent decisions declining to review the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office director’s discretionary denials of inter partes review (IPR) and post-grant review (PGR) petitions. Companies have filed constitutional arguments at the Federal Circuit challenging the high and evolving threshold for having an inter partes or post-grant review instituted, which has led to an unprecedented level of denied petitions. The companies had hoped to fit into a narrow exception to the America Invents Act that allows appeals for unconstitutional “shenanigans,” but the Federal Circuit has rejected all of the mandamus petitions since November....Read more
