J. Kobayashi remands to state court a case brought by families against their landlords, who evicted them from their homes after their water was contaminated by the U.S. Navy’s jet fuel leak. Despite the landlord’s relationship with the military under residential agreements, the landlords themselves are not military and therefore do not fall under federal jurisdiction. Bringing in the U.S. as a third-party defendant does not grant jurisdiction because “a defendant may not create subject-matter jurisdiction by filing a third-party complaint — that is not a voluntary act by plaintiff.”

J. Gonzalez finds that the lower courts properly upheld the legality of Washington state's moratorium on evicting people from their homes due to unpaid rent as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic. State law gives the governor enhanced authority during emergencies such as the Covid-19 crisis, and his move to suspend evictions fell well within his "statutory and constitutional authority" that was expanded upon during the pandemic. Affirmed.
