United States Ninth Circuit

In a takings claim against the International Boundary Commission and the U.S. Boundary Commissioner in his official capacity, the district court's denial of the current Boundary Commissioner's motion to quash filings by a previous Boundary Commissioner is vacated where the former Commissioner lacked Article III standing to appeal from the district court's order.
