What is the FAAAA and why does it matter to my case?
The Federal Aviation Administration Authorization Act of 1994 (FAAAA) was passed to deregulate the trucking and airline industries. One of its provisions prohibits states from enacting laws “related to” broker services. Brokers claim this wipes out state negligence lawsuits against them. Whether the FAAAA’s safety exception preserves victims’ rights is the exact question the Supreme Court is answering in Montgomery v. Caribe Transport.
