United States Third Circuit

In plaintiffs' suit challenging the legitimacy of President Obama's citizenship, district court's dismissal is affirmed where: 1) plaintiffs lack standing; and 2) because the finding of other district courts that plaintiffs who filed complaints based on similar legal theories violated Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11 should have served as a meaningful notice that this appeal would be frivolous, the plaintiffs' counsel is ordered to show cause why he should not pay just damages and costs for having filed a frivolous appeal.
