3 - some GREAT additional case cites in the ruling itself, like how the State cannot *cause* a federal violation, and then try to prohibit litigants from seeking redress in the federal courts for that/those same violations (i.e., for us in family court reform, like how the State cannot violate our fundamental rights, and then try to have us dismissed out of federal court for seeking vindication of those rights....) (one of my favorites from this case was: "We have long recognized that "a State cannot create a transitory cause of action and at the same time destroy the right to sue on that transitory cause of action in any court having jurisdiction." Tennessee Coal, Iron & R. Co. v. George, 233 U. S. 354, 360 (1914).")

4 - apparently also decided either TODAY, or at most, VERY recently, was another USSC case seemingly dealing the final death-blow to the "Rooker-Feldman" doctrine. **this is very important news to us** The concurring opinion by Justice Stevens, wanting to go even FARTHER in striking down such "abstention doctrines", states, in part: "Rather than preserving whatever vitality that the "exception" has retained as a result of the Markham dicta, I would provide the creature with a decent burial in a grave adjacent to the resting place of the Rooker-Feldman doctrine. See Lance v. Dennis, 546 U. S. ___, ___ (2006) (STEVENS, J., dissenting) (slip op., at 2-3)." In other words, this *other* brand new case ruling, Lance v. Dennis, apparently terminated all use of Rooker-Feldman forever... obviously, I will be reading this case immediately!!
