Date Filed Document Text
October 9, 2015 Opinion or Order Filing 66 OPINION AND ORDER: Plaintiffs Maria Robainas and others (Plaintiffs) brought a putative class action on behalf of those who purchased life insurance from Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (MLIC or Defendant). MLIC moves to dismiss the complaint o n four grounds: (1) the Plaintiffs lack standing under Article III; (2) the Plaintiffs fail to state a claim under Fed. R. Civ. P. 12(b)(6); (3) the primary jurisdiction doctrine bars the Court from adjudicating this action; and (4) the statute of li mitations has run. For the reasons that follow, the Plaintiffs do not have Article III standing because they have failed to demonstrate that they suffered an injury-in-fact. The Court therefore lacks subject-matter jurisdiction over the action and MLICs motion to dismiss is granted....The Clerk of Court shall enter judgment for MLIC and close the case. (Signed by Judge Denise L. Cote on 10/9/2015) (gr)
