The one opinion today from the Mississippi Supreme Court delves into the issue of standing. It addresses traditional standing and associational standing.
Jackson Public School District, v. Jackson Federation of Teachers and PSRPS, 2022-CA-00464-SCT (Civil – Other)
Reversing the trial court’s denial of the school district’s motion to dismiss a claim that the school district violated federation members’ free speech rights, holding that the federation lacked standing in its own right and lacked associational standing because the federation offered no direct evidence that any of its members were employed by the school district.
(6-3: Coleman dissented, joined by Kitchens and King)
NOTE – This case seemed to hing on the fact that the federation did not prove that any of its members were employed by the school district.
