No, what the judge is saying is both more and less simple than that.

Judge Surrick is saying that Atty. Berg has no standing to sue. That the hurt is not specific to him, even if one grants every point of fact that Berg has made (which is not granted other than for the sake of examining whether or not to dismiss the case).

There is a bit of explanation of the whole thing at http://www.whatsyourevidence.com/, but I'll note its treatment of the "standing' issue is pretty weak, compared to the rest of the piece.

Standing, basically, means "who has a right to bring this action?"

If you were driving along and watched car A hit car B, you could not sue on behalf of car B, even though you KNOW it happened. It did not happen to you.

Neither could you sue Car A on behalf of yourself and every other car that had to wait for the accident to be cleared. It is something that happened to all of you, not to just you. The hurt has to be to you. Finally, the 'repair' has to be both feasible and (considered) reasonable. For you to demand your time back is not going to work. Your claim of loss is pretty hard to match. And there is no law that seems to grant that there is recoverable loss, on a federal court level.

Therefore, you would be deemed to have no standing, and therefore the court would have no jurisdiction over the case - so, nothing gets even to the point of a hearing on the facts.

Hope this helps!

So who in the hell would have to sue to get this proven? What needs to be filed to get to the bottom of this? Please no Obama supporters respond to this (you people know what I mean). It's a simple question. If Berg wants to continue this, what would he need to file.

Because this seems a bit ridiculous. If a citizen ISN'T harmed by an inelligeble President, who is and why is it in there?

So then the question of does he have an original Hawaii birth certificate wasn't answered, just that the judge felt Berg wasn't entitled to sue?

The American people should sue Berg for a colossal waste of time and malicious intent to sway an election with more BS. It's not the first time he's pulled a stunt like this-- he filed a RICO lawsuit against Bush for 9/11. Somebody needs to put a muzzle on this guy.
