Why would anyone have standing to sue the FDA for approving a drug? The drug manufacturers would have standing if there were a denial, but an approval doesn’t affect any third party right.
Can you sue the DMV because your neighbor passed their driving test? Can your neighbor sue the DMV because you passed your driving test? No. Of course not. That 3rd parties lack standing to sue over the grant of a license should be axiomatic. #law #scotus
