Donofrio’s Motion to Reconsider the Bankruptcy ruling was denied. Donofrio will appeal and/or file quo warranto having exhausted (pre-appeal) that remedy for the Chrysler dealers.

I would think (not a lawyer, but I play one in FR) that this denial by the bankruptcy judge would strengthen the standing of the Chrysler dealers to request, with Donofrio acting as prosecutor, a grant of Writ of Quo Warranto by the DC Court.

So this ruling is actually a "victory" for Donofrio? I should've guessed...

To have standing, you must (at a minimum) have suffered injury as a result of the defendant's illegal acts. This ruling holds that the bankrutcy court order was valid--hence not illegal-- so the plaintiffs have no standing to challenge it in a new case.
