flag Justice Thomas urges Supreme Court to revisit government immunity in military-related lawsuits, citing accountability concerns.

flag Justice Clarence Thomas urged the Supreme Court to reconsider a long-standing legal doctrine granting the government immunity from lawsuits tied to military service, marking his third such call in five years. flag His remarks came in a case involving the death of an off-duty Air Force member, where lower courts applied the immunity rule. flag Thomas questioned the scope and justification of the doctrine, which shields the government from liability for actions during military operations or support duties. flag While the Court has not yet agreed to hear the case, his repeated advocacy signals growing scrutiny over the precedent’s validity and impact on accountability and access to justice in military-related claims.
