United States Second Circuit
Zaleski v. Burns, 09-2366
In an action seeking an order that plaintiff's allegations -- specifically, that there was a conspiracy to deny criminal defendants their constitutional rights -- be presented to a grand jury, dismissal of the complaint is affirmed where: 1) plaintiff did not allege that he ever requested that the Southern District U.S. Attorney's Office present his information to a grand jury, and thus he lacked standing to assert his claims; and 2) plaintiff failed to request any relief likely to redress the injury he asserted.
