The following excerpt is from Minetti v. Port of Seattle, 152 F.3d 1113 (9th Cir. 1998):
Second, the district court properly concluded that Minetti lacked standing to bring a claim against various corporate defendants for their alleged acts of fraud which affected members of the public and which somehow indirectly affected his employment opportunities. See Construction Indus. Ass'n of Sonoma County v. City of Petaluma, 522 F.2d 897, 903 (9th Cir.1975).
Finally, the district court properly determined that the defendant judges named in this action are entitled to absolute judicial immunity for their judicial actions in Minetti's prior cases. See Moore v. Brewster, 96 F.3d 1240, 1243-44 (9th Cir.1996), cert. denied, --- U.S. ----, 117 S.Ct. 963, 136 L.Ed.2d 848 (1997).
