Which amendment changed the jurisdiction of federal courts?

The Eleventh Amendment revoked the Supreme Court's original jurisdiction over disputes "between a state and citizens of another state," due to the Court's decision in Chisholm v. Georgia, (1793), in which the Jay Court decided the states lacked sovereign immunity from being sued for debt acquired during the Revolutionary War. Congress and the states rightfully feared this could bankrupt the states, and quickly passed the Eleventh Amendment.The Supreme Court later decided the Eleventh Amendment should be extended to include disputes between a state and its own citizens.Amendment XI"The judicial power of the United States shall not be construed to extend to any suit in law or equity, commenced or prosecuted against one of the United States by citizens of another state, or by citizens or subjects of any foreign state."


What Amendment allows the federal courts to try cases between a person living in one state and bringing suit against another state?

None. Article III of the Constitution originally gave the federal courts the power to hear cases between a state and the citizens of another state, but the Supreme Court's decision in Chisholm v. Georgia, (1793), quickly convinced both state and federal governments that allowing people to sue states could be costly and problematic.The Eleventh Amendment revoked the federal courts' original jurisdiction over disputes of this nature, unless the state voluntarily waives its sovereign immunity (and formally agrees to allow a law suit against it). This can sometimes be circumvented by suing the official (by name) with ultimate authority over the department or agency with which one has a dispute.This protection does not extend to municipalities (cities, towns).Eleventh Amendment"The Judicial power of the United States shall not be construed to extend to any suit in law or equity, commenced or prosecuted against one of the United States by Citizens of another State, or by Citizens or Subjects of any Foreign State."


Which Amendment first overturned a US Supreme Court decision?

The Eleventh Amendment revoked the Supreme Court's original jurisdiction over conflicts between a state and citizens of another state. This change was made in response to the decision in Chisholm v. Georgia, 2 U.S. 419 (1793), in which the Court declared the states lacked sovereign immunity against being sued in equity cases (mostly over land disputes), and made a large award to Chisholm against the state of Georgia.The States rightly assumed this precedent could quickly send them into bankruptcy, and petitioned Congress to amend the Constitution for their protection. The Eleventh Amendment now provides for diversity jurisdiction in the District Court, meaning the lower courts in the state being sued have original jurisdiction over these disputes.Eleventh Amendment"The judicial power of the United States shall not be construed to extend to any suit in law or equity, commenced or prosecuted against one of the United States by citizens of another state, or by citizens or subjects of any foreign state."For more information, see Related Questions, below.
