One thing I've never understood is how ACLU has legal standing to file many of its suits.
I'm assuming that ACLU isn't claiming to be the injured party in suits like this current one. Are they acting as attorneys for one of the alleged victims?

In this case it is a class-action lawsuit filed by the ACLU on behalf of the journalists. The lead plaintiff is a journalist who was shot by the police while covering a protest.

Class-action lawsuits in the USA often end up being settled with little or no real action. I hope for better here but I'm not going to hold my breath on it.

The suit is only asking for some money and for the Court to order the state to stop breaking the law even though the state presumably believes it is not breaking the law
