How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- finding standing in air-pollution case even where an injunction against the defendant would \not reduce pollution from other sources not before th[e c]ourt\
- finding injury when members were exposed to sulfurous odors that were “overpowering and capable of inducing physical discomfort”
- finding traceability for a pattern-or-practice-type claim based, among other things, on \the frequency with which Crown exceeded the federal limits on sulfur dioxide emissions at its Pasadena plant\
- favorably citing precedent holding that \breathing and smelling polluted air is sufficient to demonstrate injury-in-fact and thus confer standing under the CAA\
