U.S. Supreme Court Echoes ACA Amicus Arguments in CTS Corporation v. Peter Waldburger, et al.

摘要

On June 9, the U.S. Supreme Court reversed an appellate court judgment in CIS Corporation v. Peter Waldburger, et a/., issuing a decision that reinforces the foundations of the amicus brief that ACA submitted in support of CTS. The nation's highest court, in a 7-2 opinion delivered by Justice Anthony M. Kennedy, concluded that 42 U.S.C. S9558 (Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980's Section 309) does not preempt state statutes of repose.
