Questions presented
-
Article III Standing: Did the Fifth Circuit err in concluding that the Appellants lacked Article III standing despite their well-pleaded allegations of concrete and particularized injuries caused by the Environmental Protection Agency’s (“EPA”) Stop Sale, Use, or Removal Orders (“SSUROs”), which directly impacted their business operations and property interests?
-
Third-Party Standing: Did the Fifth Circuit err in concluding that the Appellants lacked Third-Party Standing despite their well-pleaded allegations of concrete and particularized injuries caused by the EPA’s SSUROs to entities with which Appellants have close relationships, which directly impacted their business operations and property interests?
