Johnson v. Abadi, et al.

Summary

The United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts dismisses a pro se action brought by Olivia Johnson against Gina Abadi and Hong Yi Zeng. The court concludes that the complaint fails to establish Article III standing because it does not identify conduct by the defendants that personally injured the plaintiff.

Holdings

1. The complaint failed to establish Article III standing because Johnson did not identify conduct by the defendants that caused her a concrete, particularized, and actual or imminent injury.
2. Because Johnson did not allege standing, no case or controversy existed over which the district court could exercise jurisdiction, and the action was dismissed.

Questions Presented

1. Whether the complaint alleged facts establishing Article III standing.
2. Whether the action should be dismissed for lack of a case or controversy and subject matter jurisdiction.

Disposition

dismissed
