Chisholm v. Georgia, 2 US 419 (1793)Chisholm involved a property dispute between two South Carolina residents and the state of Georgia over a parcel of land the state seized during the American Revolution. Georgia refused to release title to the land or pay a fair price to purchase it, so the men filed suit under the US Supreme Court's original jurisdiction. The Jay Court decided the men had a right to sue Georgia and required the state to compensate them for the confiscated property. According to Chief Justice John Jay, states lacked sovereign immunity from being sued for debt incurred during the War.Both the States and Federal government were upset because the Supreme Court decision opened the door to monetary claims against the States, threatening their economic stability.Congress and the States ratified the Eleventh Amendment in direct response to the decision in Chisholm v. Georgia,revoking the federal courts' Article III power to adjudicate cases between a state and citizens of another state. The Supreme Court later voluntarily expanded the prohibition to protect states against suits brought by their own citizens.For more information, see Related Questions, below.
