Another smack-down

Back on March 30, I posted a copy of a Petition for Intervention and Request for Appeal Hearing that was filed with the Indiana Alcohol and Tobacco Commission on this blog. On Saturday an answer was received which stated that my petition was denied. The reason given was, “Remonstrator has not outlined a particular harm to a legal interest that he will suffer in the future; therefore Remonstrator has failed to demonstrate a direct injury for which he will be ‘personally aggrieved or adversely affected’ to attain standing as an intervening remonstrator”.
In other words, despite the accusation that the permit was improper due to the fact that the Fort Wayne Redevelopment Authority is not a municipality and therefore it can not be issued a type 219 permit, plus the accusation that the local ATC board did not adequately investigate my contentions - the State ATC Hearing Judge, E. Edward Dunsmore, has ordered, adjudged and decreed that I have no business in calling these items to the attention of the State Commission.
Why am I not surprised ?
