Maybe i'm missing something, but if this is really all you're going to use your APP_IS_NOT_RUNNING test for, then you don't actually need it at all:
NSWorkspace's launchApplication: method had this line in its docs:
"...Returns YES if the application is successfully launched or already running, and NO if it can't be launched."
so, if you just want to avoid launching two copies of it, don't worry - just go right ahead. It will not start a second copy.
this documentation was at:
http://developer.apple.com/techpubs/macosx/Cocoa/Reference/ApplicationKit/ObjC_classic/Classes/NSWorkspace.html
cheers,

I looked all over the documentation and can not find anything
that does what I want. What I have is a timer that fires every
few seconds that will check to see if a specific application is
open, if not it will open it, here is the basic structure of what
I am needing:
if ( APP IS NOT RUNNING ) {
[[NSWorkspace sharedWorkspace] launchApplication: @"APP NAME"];
}
