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.

On March 12, 2026, the Senate passed the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act (the Act). If passed in its current form, the Act would restrict the ability of large institutional investors, such as real estate investment trusts (REITs) and investment funds, to own single-family homes held primarily for rent to residential tenants (SFRs). However, the Act would not require any such large institutional investors currently owning SFRs to sell such properties. The Act is now in the House of Representatives for possible amendment and revision.
