Of note is that this amendment *only* covers cases where a citizen sues a *single* state, not 49 of them.
There is no Constitutional rule that covers the process between a individual and more than a single state. It simply ain't there.
Well considering that the Constitution is a *limiting* document, if the powers are not explicitly given to the Federal Government they don't have them. Soooo, in the case of a citizen sues multiple states the Federal Government still has no juristiction as they have never explicitly been given that power. - -- - --------------------------------------------------------------- William H.
