Patricio Alejandro Castaneda v. State

How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

  • observing that the Tucker Act grants jurisdiction over “statutory and regulatory violations” that occur in “the procurement context,” but not over those that are only “tangentially related to a government procurement”
  • finding appropriations provision tangential to, and thus, not \related to\ a procurement
  • considering “statutory struc- ture” to determine whether a statute regulates procurement
  • appropriations bills and riders are typically not interpreted as procurement statutes for purposes of adjudicating bid protests under the Tucker Act
  • ‘“In the absence of clear evidence to the contrary,’ the presumption of regularity allows courts to presume that ‘public officers have properly discharged their official duties.”’
