Decided June 20, 2025. John Glover Roberts Jr. delivered the opinion of the Court.

Docket 24-20 · 606 U.S. 1 (2025) · Cited 31 times

Holding

The Promoting Security and Justice for Victims of Terrorism Act’s personal jurisdiction provision does not violate the Fifth Amendment’s Due Process Clause because the statute reasonably ties the assertion of jurisdiction over the PLO and PA to conduct involving the United States and implicating sensitive foreign policy matters within the prerogative of the political branches.
