SUPREME COURT TOSSES TEXAS BID TO OVERTURN ELECTION

The Court *denied* leave to file for lack of standing; Justices Thomas and Alito would have granted leave to file, but wrote to emphasize that they would *not* grant any other relief.
On to the house of representatives eh?
Dismissing a case for lack of standing is the number one way, bar all other ways, to get rid of a case when a judge (or judges or “justices”) does not want to take it, for whatever reason. The true reason never being disclosed.
Standing, or not, is one of the most subjective and convoluted principles in the law. It’s not unlike one’s preference for liking one flavor or color over another. Whose right, whose wrong, whose to say? What the judge says is what counts.
Often, where one judge says he or she sees standing another does not. Decisions on standing are ripe for and fraught with influences of politics, money, special interests, envy, whose ox is being gored......
But this ain’t over folks. Not by a long shot.
