"Double Jeopardy." I'm not a lawyer, but I'm pretty sure that would qualify as being tried for the same crime twice.
So it one or the other at a time, and since SCOTUS refused the Tribunal can start, or the Tribunals had already started and that's why they couldn't take the case. Given the "moot" comment, that feels right. Lack of standing or being disqualified is very different than "moot." The word moot means either: a) A subject is debatable b) A subject is disputed
That's uh, not how one would describe a case being tossed out of court without a hearing. It must be debated/disputed elsewhere is my thought.
