What is your opinion?

Without digging too deep into this, it appears the Supreme Court might be closing the door on a Plaintiff shopping forums to circumvent the proper Federal jurisdiction. IMHO there are a number of issues ripe for the Supreme Court to reassert Federal preemption. The State Courts have been allowing Federal immigration agreements to be used in civil cases and obviously this instant case would subject airlines to State and Local rules.
