Summary
This document is a page from a legal brief retrieved from Westlaw, bearing a House Oversight Committee Bates stamp. It argues that a lower district court erred in dismissing Anti-Terrorism Act (ATA) claims against Al Rajhi Bank, Saudi American Bank, and others related to the financing of al-Qaeda. The text focuses on legal standards (Rule 8 and Rule 12), arguing the court applied an incorrectly heightened standard of scrutiny to the plaintiffs' pleadings regarding the defendants' intent and support for terrorism.
