This is not a certiorari case, but a rare case of original jurisdiction. Sovereign states can only sue each other in the Supreme Court, although the Court can exercise its discretion not to take the case.

Hi C T,

Thank you for the clarification. I seem to recall that from my Federal Civil Procedure courses.

So, what do you think? I’m dubious about the suit. I would think that alternative recourses may be available. BTW, I’ve got an aging client that offered (note I said offered) some Mary Jane ointment for pain relief. He brought it back from Colorado last summer.
