Supreme Court Revives Lawsuit Over Wrong-House FBI Raid

In a unanimous decision, the Supreme Court has allowed an Atlanta family to proceed with a lawsuit against the FBI following a botched raid on their home. The Court ruled that the family can seek damages for the trauma and disruption caused by the mistaken raid, which the FBI conducted while searching for suspects in a criminal investigation. This decision restores their case, previously dismissed, and sends it back to a lower court for further review, providing the family another chance to hold the government accountable for its actions.
