My interest in Wikipedia was found after searching the internet and realizing that this source of information was a place to contribute.

I am a whistleblower in a State Agency.

When I first filed in Federal Court in a state outside of the illegal acts, I was told I could not sue a state in federal court. I was discouraged at how much I had researched to read the five pages the court sent immediately dismissing my case under 11th amendment sovereign immunity. The Magistrate (and law) says you can't sue a state in federal court. He gave me five pages with cases to study and thirty days.

It was going to be a challenge. I found the phrase "Exclusive Federal Jurisdiction" directly relating to the subject matter. I had an ongoing and systematic relationship of the two districts. The Supreme Court decided a case- Tennessee vs. Lane during the thirty days which I cited copious amounts of, including Scalia's dissent. I was put on the docket.
