That being the case, if one were trying to draft a proper clause to incorporate Mr. Scarpaleggia's idea, I would have suggested, if it were my amendment, that the words “oppose, or otherwise contest” should go in the clause that relates to the courts, since “deny” is sufficient to the other issues. And since “deny” is not appropriate in court proceedings, the amendment, in my view, still doesn't make sense, and it would require a further amendment, if we're going to do this in a legislative and responsible way, to say further down “or to oppose, or otherwise contest standing before the courts”, etc.
