>>”Prior, IIRC, to filing suit, they paid their fee and re-registered with the State of Maryland.”
Thanks for the info. Purely as a rhetorical question, and food for thought: During the time when they were legally “not a legal entity,” could they sustain the harm which is the subject of the suit? I don’t know. Just askin’.

Great question. I don’t know. Could be that even if harm was found the lack of registration would mitigate the outcome...or the organization would be found to lack standing from the get-go. Thing is, they are so discombobulated over there, I’m not sure they are even aware that they were not paid up. Could be higher up the chain did so.
Last [incoherent] thought: if it is moved to a Federal Court, the case might proceed, but lack of registration could be used as another nail in the coffin of Acorn.
Any attorneys out there?
