I have a few questions regarding somethings I am getting confused over...
1. Is the non-delegation doctrine unconstitutional?
2. What exactly is a generalized grievance?
3. Are there only certain circumstances where there is tax payer standing?

Re: Con Law Question
Wow, going to need help on your exam if these are questions you have. Hope you aren't on a take-home right now.SKlei wrote:I have a few questions regarding somethings I am getting confused over...

1. Why would it be unconstitutional? Are you asking if delegation is unconstitutional. The answer to that is maybe (situational)
2. A GG is me bringing a claim as a tax-payer, with no other reason to bring a claim (so if I object to the war, I can't bring a claim, or if I think the Government is wrong somewhere) the theory is, there will almost always be a better plaintiff (such as the state, or an AG)
3. Yes, if the political process is at a place where the individual has no other options. This is rare (and can't think of a real example off the top of my head) The court may infer standing if the political process if there would/could be no other plaintiffs that would reasonably bring a claim forward.
