Block on Trump's Asylum Ban Upheld by Supreme Court
In plaintiff's suit against the USPS arising from an automobile collision with a USPS employee, dismissal of the claim is affirmed as a claimant under the Federal Tort Claims Act, whose damages continue to accrue, must nevertheless submit a claim to the appropriate agency containing a "sum certain" for damages prior to filing suit because the sum certain requirement is jurisdictional.
