Standing Rules
from Amarica's Constitution · host Akhil Reed Amar
The Supreme Court issued a stay in the Mifepristone case, so everyone goes back to their corner - for now, anyway. They’ll be back. And when they are, the issue of standing may well be front and center. We grab this opportunity to give you a primer on standing, starting with the Constitution, tracking the Court’s recent strange path on this issue - and then we hear the Amar approach. Our listeners should be in a position to see the Mifepristone case clearly, as well as have a firm basis to keep from falling down on standing.
