A federal judge on Friday dismissed a lawsuit filed by a Florida lawyer who claimed Trump should be banned from the 2024 ballot for inciting an insurrection.
Trump has not been charged with engaging in insurrection or rebellion against the United States.
Judge Robin Rosenberg a US District Judge for the Southern District of Florida ruled the attorney, Lawrence Caplan, lacked standing to bring the lawsuit.

"Plaintiffs lack standing to challenge Defendant's qualifications for seeking the Presidency," Rosenberg, an Obama appointee wrote, adding that "The injuries alleged" from the insurrection on Capitol Hill more than two years ago "Are not cognizable and not particular to them." The judge also said that "An individual citizen does not have standing to challenge whether another individual is qualified to hold public office." The Palm Beach Post reported: A federal court judge in Fort Lauderdale on Thursday dismissed a lawsuit challenging Donald Trump's 2024 presidential candidacy under the 14th Amendment.
The lawsuit, filed a week ago, questioned Trump's ability to appear on the Florida presidential primary ballot next year, owing to his alleged role in the Jan. 6 violence at the U.S. Capitol.
In her swift dismissal of the case, Judge Robin Rosenberg, who was appointed to the bench by President Barack Obama, did not determine the 14th Amendment's applicability in Trump's case.
Meanwhile New Hampshire's RINO Secretary of State and Attorney General are also reviewing the legal theory that Trump can't run for president.
