3rd Circuit tosses birther claims because they "suffer from fatal defects in their reasoning"
Edited on Thu Nov-12-09 08:40 PM by usregimechange
Philip Berg, a lawyer acting pro se, filed this action challenging Barack Obama’s eligibility to run for and serve as President of the United States. The District Court dismissed Berg’s action on the grounds that he lacks standing and failed to state a cognizable claim...

Berg’s arguments that the District Court ignored some of his voluminous motions and other pleadings not only suffer from fatal defects in their reasoning, but are irrelevant...

Because there is no case or controversy, we will affirm the District Court’s order dismissing Berg’s action.

5. What happens next is predictable
Charges that the court is part of a conspiracy, followed by fines and then fines for not paying fines.
