Howard Mintz of The San Jose Mercury News reports that "Ruling restores suit against San Jose company linked to 'torture flights.'"
law.com reports that "State Secrets Immunity Claim Doesn't Fly With 9th Circuit in CIA Rendition Case."
And at "SCOTUSblog," Lyle Denniston has a post titled "'State secrets' doctrine narrowed."
My earlier coverage of yesterday's Ninth Circuit ruling appears at this link.
