“purports” shows the reluctance on his part. Plaintiff did without question file the suit using the RCW in question. Very few cases have acknowledged the plaintiff as having standing.
That doesn’t say she had standing, that said that the issue of standing was irrelevant — I’d have to see more full context to understand exactly why the case was dismissed. It’s patently ludicrous to assert the the judge declared she had standing and then fined her for filing a frivolous suit, though.
