Walker v. Hoke Cty.

BERGER, Judge.

*121 Russell F. Walker ("Plaintiff") appeals an order granting Hoke County, Fifth Third Bank, Inc., and Tyton NC Biofuels, LLC's (collectively "Defendants") motion to dismiss Plaintiff's complaint for lack of *122 standing and failure to state a claim under Rules 12(b)(1) and (6) of the North Carolina Rules of Civil Procedure. Plaintiff argues the trial court erred because he sufficiently established standing as a taxpayer of Hoke County, and has suffered an injury from which a favorable judgment on his claims can grant him relief. We disagree.
