Subject Matter Jurisdiction, Cause of Action and Standing?

[mccann022]

I was wondering if this is a valid claim? Saying in civil court the plaintiff must be alleging "personal injuries or damages" and if not they have no standing, thus the court hasn't any "Subject Matter Jurisdiction".

Also does it say in the Constitution that government is established "to maintain and protect individual rights" ?

So since challenging a ticket is going to civil court, there must be a valid "Cause of Action" and a valid "Cause of Action" would be the Plaintiff alleging personal injury or damage?

Here is a video from someone on Youtube speaking about Subject Matter Jurisdiction and how it's a legal loop hole since challenging a ticket is in civil court and the plaintiff is not alleging personal injury or damages.

1. In a civil case, a plaintiff must state a claim upon which relief can be granted. This could be personal injuries, economic injuries, general damages, reputational injuries, lost opportunities, etc. A failure to state a claim upon which relief can be granted results in, surprisingly enough, a "Dismissal for failure to state a complaint upon which relief can be granted," not a "Dismissal for lack of subject matter jurisdiction."

2. Subject matter jurisdiction is about what types of cases a court can hear, not about what people must allege in order to be heard. For example, the United States Tax Court only has subject matter jurisdiction over cases about federal taxation - it can't hear any other cases.

3. The text of the United States Constitution can be read here: The United States Constitution - The U.S. Constitution Online - USConstitution.net

3. In some states, traffic violations governed by the state's criminal code, even when the traffic violation is a civil one. In any event, traffic citation cases are generally treated as criminal cases, not civil cases. The cause of action in criminal cases is the criminal activity, not personal injury or damages.
