Again. Wrong. The estate of the deceased plaintiff would pursue the case, after being substituted under civil rule 25 (or comparable under the rules of the various states). It would not be mooted by the death. Mootness is a doctrine, and it has no application to your hypothetical. Read about it. Understand also what an injunction is and what it means, how it is proved, etc., and, of course, when it is "mooted."
Laurence Tribe is not always right, but he was part of the suit and his comment on the dismissal was "that's the way the cookie crumbles." A direct quote, if you'd like to read it and try to understand it you'll find an answer to the question I asked you and that you avoided.
Please understand I'm not trying to argue with you. I was hoping, naively I suppose, that you might consider how little you understand about the law, the constitution, the Supreme Court or any court and court process and procedure, and then take steps to remedy that short-coming. It's impossible to miss, and I can understand that you may not like that or want to acknowledge it. But, as I've said as politely as I can -- you are wrong, and poorly educated on those issues. Simple as that.
Now, do what you wish with that suggestion. I'm done. |
