10 U.S.C. § 456 — Civil actions barred

submitted 32 years ago by Pub. L. 103-337 to r/title-10-ARMED-FORCES · 27 words · no verdicts yet

in plain englishAI-generated · not legal advice

No one may sue the United States over geospatial information. This applies to information the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency prepares or shares. The lawsuit is barred based on the content of that information.

This section blocks a specific kind of lawsuit against the federal government. No civil action may be brought against the United States on the basis of the content of geospatial information. That is, if someone is unhappy with what geospatial information says, they cannot sue the United States over it. The information covered is geospatial information prepared or disseminated by the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency. "Prepared" covers information the Agency created. "Disseminated" covers information the Agency simply passed along or shared. This section is a single, undivided rule. It has no lettered subsections. It does not say what other options, if any, remain open to someone harmed by inaccurate geospatial information — it only closes off this particular kind of civil action against the United States based on the content of such information.
