Kinder, et al v. Geithner, et al, No. 11-1973 (8th Cir. 2012)
Annotate this CasePlaintiffs, including Samantha Hill and Missouri Lieutenant Governor Peter Kinder, acting in his personal capacity, brought this action to challenge various provisions of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, Pub. L. No. 111-148, 124 Stat. 119. The district court dismissed the suit for lack of standing. Because neither Hill nor Kinder pleaded sufficient facts to establish an injury-in-fact, both plaintiffs lacked standing to sue, and there was no Article III case or controversy. Accordingly, the court affirmed the judgment.
Court Description: Civil Case - Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. District court did not err in determining that appellants failed to allege an injury-in-fact and thus lacked standing to challenge the individual mandate provision of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act.
