Question presented

Was it clear error for the Third Circuit to fail to address the issue of whether the Surface Transportation Board ("STB") had the jurisdiction to render a decision in the underlying proceeding? (Even if the court determines that Petitioner does not have standing.) Were the allegations in Petitioner's Affidavit sufficient to defeat Respondents' Motion to Dismiss for lack of standing? -1-
