Sovereign immunity in 1954 the government of bolivia began


Question: Sovereign Immunity. In 1954, the government of Bolivia began expropriating land from Francisco Loza for public projects, including an international airport. The government directed the payment of compensation in exchange for at least some of his land. But the government never paid the full amount. Decades later, his heirs, Genoveva and Marcel Loza, who were both U.S. citizens, filed a suit in a federal district court in the United States against the government of Bolivia, seeking damages for the taking. Can the court exercise jurisdiction? Explain. [Santivanez v. Estado Plurinacional de Bolivia, 2013 WL 879983 (11th Cir. 2013)]
