Outcome

The district court dismissed Tabaee's complaint for lack of subject matter jurisdiction over most claims and failure to state a plausible claim for relief. The court found that Tabaee lacked standing as neither an employee nor applicant for employment at NASA, and her tort and contract claims were not cognizable against the federal government.
