1. Capable of being known or recognized (for purposes of establishing standing, a plaintiff must allege a judicially cognizable injury).
2. Capable of being identified as a group because of a common characteristic or interest that cannot be represented by others (American Indians qualify as a cognizable group for jury-selection purposes).
3. Capable of being judicially tried or examined before a designated tribunal; within the court’s jurisdiction (the tort claims are not cognizable under the consumer-protection statute).
