Description:

U.S. Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor declined on Monday to halt $655.5 million in damages that Palestinian ​authorities were ordered to pay plaintiffs in a U.S. civil lawsuit concerning attacks that killed and injured ‌Americans in Israel from 2002 to 2004.

Sotomayor denied a request by the Palestinian Authority and the Palestine Liberation Organization to put on hold the judgment while they appeal a lower court's decision to revive the case years after it had been dismissed. The lawsuit was brought ​on behalf of Americans killed or injured in those shootings and bombings in the Jerusalem area.
