Martin v. United States
605 U.S. 395 (2025)
Key Principle
In a Federal Tort Claims Act suit, the Supremacy Clause does not afford the United States a defense, and the law-enforcement proviso in 28 U.S.C. 2680(h) overrides only the intentional-tort exception in that subsection (not the discretionary-function exception or other Section 2680 exceptions), so a wrong-house FBI raid claim may proceed subject to the remaining exceptions on remand.
