What is Amicus Brief: Great Lakes Ins. v. Raiders Retreat about?

The amicus brief argues that the Supreme Court should reexamine precedents from the Lochner era that subordinate state law to federal maritime common law. It contends that the Constitution does not provide a basis for preemptive federal maritime common law and that historically, states had regulatory power over maritime commerce and federal courts lacked power to preempt state law with federal maritime common law until the early 20th century.
