Question for lawyers or law students on DU.....can citizens join
in on Ellen Mariani's lawsuit against Bush and his administration? Even though millions of us didn't lose any loved ones on 9/11 we still have a right to get to the truth, do we not? I'm concerned that this woman is going it alone. Wouldn't it be better if it was a class action lawsuit brought on by thousands if not millions of Americans? Any thoughts?

1. She has damages, we don't
Thus she has standing, we don't. Unless this is some generic FOA suit we can't join in.

2. thanks for the info....still a disgrace that thousands of victims
families are not on board with her. I know if you took the blood money offered, you had to sign an agreement saying that you couldn't sue the airlines but does that go for not suing Smirky too?
