This suit is toast. The precedent of Curtiss-Wright will probably hold up again.

Maybe, but since most of Justice Sutherland's opinion was dictum, it needn't be treated as precedent. Hopefully, someone in Congress will make a case of it. I would really like to see the question of treaty authority--which Curtiss-Wright doesn't touch at all--dealt with head-on.
