Ministerio Rocasolida, Inc. v. United States

Petition for certiorari denied on November 9, 2015

Docket No. Op. Below Argument Opinion Vote Author Term
14-1413 Fed. Cir. N/A N/A N/A N/A OT 2015

Issue: (1) Whether Congress may, through jurisdictional statutes, limit an aggrieved party seeking non-overlapping relief for multiple explicit constitutional rights violations to seek vindication in but one federal court even though no such court may make the aggrieved party whole and no single court has jurisdiction over all claims brought and/or all relief sought; and (2) whether, even if arguendo United States v. Tohono O"odham Nation were somehow correctly decided in holding that 28 U.S.C. § 1500's language "in respect to a claim" means "associated with in any way," the Tohono holding is nevertheless unconstitutional as applied to petitioner below.
