42 U.S.C. § 12202

Current through P.L. 118-106 (published on www.congress.gov on 10/04/2024)

Section 12202 - State immunity

A State shall not be immune under the eleventh amendment to the Constitution of the United States from an action in¹ Federal or State court of competent jurisdiction for a violation of this chapter. In any action against a State for a violation of the requirements of this chapter, remedies (including remedies both at law and in equity) are available for such a violation to the same extent as such remedies are available for such a violation in an action against any public or private entity other than a State.

¹So in original. Probably should be "in a".
