Trump-Appointed Judge Says Gohmert s Lawsuit Against Pence Lacked Standing
On 1/1/21 at 10:02 PM EST
A court case filed by Republican Texas Representative Louie Gohmert, which sought to give Vice President Mike Pence the legal authority to singlehandedly overturn the results of the November presidential election, has been thrown out by Trump-appointee U.S. District Judge Jeremy Daniel Kernodle.
In his decision, Kernodle said that Gohmert and his other plaintiffs lacked the legal standing to argue their case. The problem for Plaintiffs here is that they lack standing, Kernodle wrote in his decision. Plaintiff Louie Gohmert, the United States Representative for Texas s First Congressional District, alleges at most an institutional injury to the House of Representatives. Under well-settled Supreme Court authority, that is insufficient to support standing.

Texas Rep. Louie Gohmert s lawsuit against Vice President Mike Pence, which was designed to overturn President-elect Joe Biden s victory, has been dismissed.
Federal judge Jeremy Kernodle ruled on Friday that Gohmert, who was joined by a group of Arizona Republicans who would have been electors for President Trump, don t have standing, a critical element determining jurisdiction.
The ruling is a victory for Pence, who through Justice Department lawyers argued in a filing with the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas on Thursday that Gohmert and his allies should have sued Congress, not the vice president.
