United States Eighth Circuit

In a suit by independent contractors asserting various tort and contract claims against a logging company, dismissal of the action is affirmed where the corporate plaintiff lacked capacity to sue because the company's corporate charter had been revoked, and the individual plaintiff lacked standing since the complaint did not allege that the plaintiff suffered an injury separate and distinct from the corporations involved.
