Standing has nothing to do with this case. The hospitals are private employers and are free to mandate conditions of employment in an at-will state


So employers can mandate women to be on birth control or they get fired? Seems like the same zip code to me. Forcing unwanted medical material into a persons body.

PT lawyers all say yes.

They would also be the first in line to sue an employer who was doing these things (as long as they were getting paid).

I’m actually fully vaccinated, but am thinking about identifying as non-vaccinated. Rage against the machine.

There are 2 types of suits involved here. You can sue for damages or other relief, like a restraining order. This was a petition for restraining order, which has a whole different burden, relief, etc. than a petition for damages.

In your example, the parties could probably sue for damages and get beyond initial examination (it's an exception of no cause of action in LA but in other jurisdictions it would be a request to dismiss for failure of the complaint to state a claim on which relief can be granted), but they would never win a petition for restraining order.

The suit in OP is for a restraining order, which they were never going to get.

I know the judge and I know a few of the plaintiffs

the judge had no choice, Tommy Frederick is by the book and the book is pretty clear. So they can appeal

There were over 200 people involved on the plaintiff side, not sure how many of them were named though. They knew this was a long shot, but you have to run it out and this lawsuit was a compromise to quitting.

Now the choice is before them to quit, and their employers know they were involved, so there is about to be a mass exodus of nurses and staff
