CASE DIRECTLY REFERRED to Magistrate Judge Robin M. Meriweather for Full Case Management. (md) |
MINUTE ORDER referring this case to Magistrate Judge Merriweather for full case management, up to but excluding trial pursuant to Local Civil Rule 72.2. This includes, with respect to any potentially dispositive motions, the preparation of a report and recommendation pursuant to Local Civil Rule 72.3. The parties are reminded that, pursuant to Local Civil Rule 73.1, they may consent to the assignment of this action to a magistrate judge for all purposes, including trial. Consent of the district court judge is not necessary. Signed by Judge Emmet G. Sullivan on 3/13/2017. (lcegs1) |
MINUTE ORDER granting over objections #179 plaintiffs motion for leave to file third amended complaint. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 15(a)(2) (The court should freely give leave when justice so requires.); see also Richardson v. United States, 193 F.3d 545, 548-49 (D.C. Cir. 1999) (Leave to amend a complaint should be freely given in the absence of undue delay, bad faith, undue prejudice to the opposing party, repeated failure to cure deficiencies, or futility. (citing Foman v. Davis, 371 U.S. 178, 182 (1962))). Granting leave to amend is consistent with the Court of Appeals mandate: (1) the claims in Count I were remanded to this Court; and (2) the mandate was silent as to the claims in Counts II-VI. See Quern v. Jordan, 440 U.S. 332 n.18 (1979)(While a mandate is controlling as to matters within its compass, on the remand a lower court is free as to other issues.). Thus the Court has discretion under Rule 15(a) to allow plaintiffs to amend the complaint to add these claims. The Court is not persuaded by the arguments of the defendants that leave to file should be denied. See Heller v. District of Columbia, 290 F.R.D. 1, 3 (D.D.C. 2013)([U]nder Rule 15, the non-movant generally carries the burden in persuading the court to deny leave to amend.(quoting Nwachukwu v. Karl, 222 F.R.D. 208, 211 (D.D.C. 2004)). Plaintiffs Third Amended Complaint, ECF No. 186-1, is hereby deemed filed. Defendants shall answer or otherwise respond to the Third Amended complaint by no later than April 14, 2017. Signed by Judge Emmet G. Sullivan on 3/13/2017. (lcegs1) |

MINUTE ORDER. Upon consideration of Plaintiffs' #145 Motion to Alter Judgment for Reconsideration and #146 Motion for Leave to File Amendment to Second Amended Complaint, the Court hereby DENIES both motions with prejudice. Rule 59(e) permits a party to file a motion to alter or amend judgment. Fed. R. Civ. P. 59(e). The disposition of a motion originating under Rule 59(e) is entrusted to the district court's discretion, and "'need not be granted unless the district court finds there is an intervening change in controlling law, the availability of new evidence, or the need to correct a clear error or to prevent manifest injustice.'" Ciralsy v. Cent. Intelligence Agency, 355 F.3d 661, 675 (D.C. Cir. 2004) (quoting Firestone v. Firestone, 76 F.3d 1205, 1208 (D.C. Cir. 1996)). Although courts have "considerable discretion in ruling on a Rule 59(e) motion," Piper v. U.S. Dep't of Justice, 312 F. Supp. 2d 17, 20 (D.D.C. 2004), such motions are "disfavored and relief from judgment is granted only when the moving party establishes extraordinary circumstances," Niedermeier v. Office of Baucus, 153 F. Supp. 2d 23, 28 (D.D.C. 2001). A motion to reconsider under Rule 59(e) "is [neither]... an opportunity to reargue facts and theories upon which a court has already ruled, nor a vehicle for presenting theories or arguments that could have been advanced earlier." SEC v. Bilzerian, 729 F. Supp. 2d 9, 14 (D.D.C. 2010). Plaintiffs here claim that the Court's ruling is "contrary to law and will create manifest injustice." Pls.' Mot. for Reconsideration at 1. To that end, Plaintiffs present seven bases for reconsideration, arguing that: (1) the Court incorrectly applied the D.C. Circuit's decision in Hall v. C&P Telephone Co, 809 F.2d 924 (D.C. Cir. 1987) (per curiam) and similar decisions in other Circuits, and erred in failing to accept Plaintiffs' argument that their claims fall outside of the exclusivity provision of the Defense Base Act ("DBA"), 42 U.S.C. 1651 et seq., on the basis of the First Circuit's decision in Martin v. Travelers Insurance Co., 497 F.2d 329 (1st Cir. 1974), Pls.' Mot. for Reconsideration at 9-14; (2) the exclusivity provision of the DBA is narrower than the exclusivity provision of the Longshore and Harbor Workers' Compensation Act, 33 U.S.C. 901 et seq., an argument raised for the first time in their motion for reconsideration, id. at 14-15; (3) the Court did not properly consider their argument regarding deliberate acts that are not preempted by the statutory scheme, id. at 15-17; (4) the Court did not consider case law from other jurisdictions regarding their retaliatory discharge claim under the DBA, id. at 17-20; (5) the Court improperly dismissed Plaintiffs' Americans with Disabilities Act, 42 U.S.C. 12112, claims because they did adequately plead the elements of prima facie case, id. at 21-24; (6) the Court erroneously found that they did not allege claims for breach of contract and detrimental reliance, id. at 24-29; and (7) the Court incorrectly applied Danielson v. Burnside-Ott Aviation Training Center, Inc., 941 F.2d 1220 (D.C. Cir. 1991), in determining that the DBA bars RICO claims, Pls.' Mot. for Reconsideration at 29-33. Plaintiffs also seek leave to file an amendment to their Second Amended Complaint to correct the pleading deficiencies in their ADA and contract-based claims. The Court finds that in their Motion for Reconsideration Plaintiffs essentially reargue the same points they made in the voluminous briefing on the motions to dismiss filed in this matter, and that their motion is a transparent attempt to have their arguments reheard. To the extent that Plaintiffs' present any new arguments in their motion for reconsideration, they are to no avail, because Rule 59(e) motions are not "vehicles for bringing before the court theories or arguments that were not advanced earlier." Harvey v. District of Columbia, 949 F. Supp. 878, 879 (D.D.C. 1996). Moreover, even if the Court were to accept Plaintiffs' new arguments, they would fail for the reasons articulated in the Court's memorandum opinion. See Brink v. XE Holding, 910 F. Supp. 2d 242 (D.D.C. 2012). Although the Court did not specify in its December 21, 2012 Order whether the dismissal of Plaintiffs' Second Amended Complaint was with or without prejudice, in this Circuit, a dismissal pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 12(b)(6) "is a resolution on the merits and is ordinarily prejudicial." Okusami v. Psychiatric Inst. of Washington, Inc., 959 F.2d 1062 (D.C. Cir. 1992); see Semtek Int'l Inc. v. Lockheed Martin Corp., 531 U.S. 497, 505 (2001). Accordingly, Plaintiffs' motions are hereby DENIED. Signed by Judge Emmet G. Sullivan on September 26, 2013. (lcegs1) |

MINUTE ORDER denying #106 Plaintiffs' Motion for Leave to Appear Pro Hac Vice, without prejudice to re-filing, for failure to comply with Local Civil Rule 83.2(d).

MINUTE ORDER denying #103 Plaintiffs' Motion for Extension of Page Limits. Plaintiffs have failed to provide the clarity requested by the Court. As the Court understands it, Plaintiffs' request seeks leave to exceed the page limit on two responses to the combined motions to dismiss of the Contractor Defendants and the Insurer Defendants, and to file an additional 10-page factual supplement, yet Plaintiffs still intend to file opposition briefs of up to 45 pages in response to the other 12 motions to dismiss filed by individual Defendants. The Court therefore does not believe that an enlargement of pages is justified. Plaintiffs' Motion for an Extension of Page Limits for Response Briefs on Motions to Dismiss and for Additional Factual Statement is therefore DENIED. Signed by Judge Emmet G. Sullivan on August 17, 2012. (lcegs6) |
