Chardon v. Fernandezgreen2 sentences1996The effect of this ruling will be to increase the number of unripe and anticipatory lawsuits in the federal courts—lawsuits that should not be filed until some concrete harm has been suffered, and until the parties, and the forces of time, have had maximum opportunity to resolve the controversy.” (Chardon, supra, 454 U.S. at p. 9 [ 70 L.Ed.2d at p. 9 ] (dis. opn. of Brennan, J.).)
