The Supreme Court rejected Carter Page's attempt to revive his lawsuit against former FBI Director James Comey and others regarding their involvement in a federal investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election. Page's lawsuit centered on inaccuracies in warrant applications that authorized surveillance on him. A Justice Department investigation later confirmed that these warrant applications were flawed. Page's claims against the federal government were recently settled, leaving only the claims against Comey and others for alleged violations of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act. A federal judge previously ruled that Page had filed his lawsuit too late, a decision upheld by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit. Comey's attorney declined to comment on the recent settlement.
