As reported by the Palm Beach Post, U.S. District Judge Robin Rosenberg, an Obama appointee, ruled that Boynton Beach attorney Lawrence Caplan and two others lacked standing to bring a case arguing that the 14th Amendment prohibited Trump from running for a federal elected office.

“Plaintiffs lack standing to challenge Defendant’s qualifications for seeking the Presidency,” the ruling read, though Rosenberg did not rule on whether the 14th Amendment could be used to keep him off the ballot next year.
