United States First Circuit

Dismissal of an action seeking to prevent initiation of a war against Iraq is affirmed, as no ripe dispute exists as to the President's acts and Congress's authorization of use of force, and claims that Congress and the President have transgressed their shared constitutional war powers are presently insufficient to present a justiciable issue.
