Injury, but no standing.

October 3, 2022

Scylla and Charybdis, the “double threat” foes of Ulysses in the Odyssey (right), would have been interested in Denning v. Bond Pharmacy, Inc., where the plaintiff successfully “show[ed] an injury in fact through her breach of contract claims.” So far so good. But the Court continued: “Athough Denning has established injury in fact, she cannot get past the redressability prong required to establish standing. This is because her injury, as she alleges it, is not redressable by the compensatory and punitive damages that she seeks. Put another way, rendering an award of damages in favor of Denning does not redress her insurer’s injury of being subjected to AIS’s unauthorized billing practices.” No. 21-30534 (Sept. 30, 2022).
