…g. New York v. United States, 505 U.S. 144 (1992), and Garcia v. San Antonio Metropolitan Transit Authority (1985).

…. But I don’t think anyone has figured out another resolution to the problem. Is it scary? Absolutely! I have been in a position where I needed a medic and the response was delayed with the irregular hours of service from Commerce Center. Susan and I were shopping at Kroger when I lost consciousness. Medics were called, but because Commerce Center was closed, the dispatch went to Funderburg. Their medic was available, but since they must a…
