Palestine Liberation Organization et al|a civil case considered by a US federal court]] the Palestinian Authority and [[Palestine Liberation Organization]] were found liable for the death and injuries of US citizens in a number of terrorist attacks in Israel from 2001 to 2004. However, on 31 August 2016, the Second US Circuit Court of Appeals in Manhattan dismissed the lawsuit on the grounds that US federal courts lacked overseas jurisdiction on civil cases.<ref name="Reuters 31 August 2016">{{cite news|last1=Stemple|first1=Jonathan|title=US court voids $655 million verdict against PLO over Israel attacks|url=https://www.reuters.com/article/us-israel-palestinians-decision-idUSKCN1161UU?il=0|access-date=8 September 2016|work=Reuters|date=31 August 2016}}</ref><ref name="Sullcrom">{{cite web|title=Sokolow v.
