(1. Defendant PUSD's motion to dismiss (Doc. No. 72) is granted; 2. The eight c ause of action, appearing in plaintiffs' fourth amended complaint (Doc.

(Gaumnitz, R)
January 13, 2016 Opinion or Order Filing 66 ORDER signed by District Judge Kimberly J. Mueller on 1/12/2016. In light of the plaintiffs' 52 Statement of Non-Opposition the claims for negligent infliction of emotional distress are DISMISSED with prejudice. The plaintiffs do not address t he YCAs and Laras arguments that the complaint states no claim against them for state-law wrongful termination in violation of public policy. This claim is therefore DISMISSED with leave to amend. The plaintiffs are again reminded of their obligation s under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11. Complaint's theory of YCA's and Lara's liability as private entities under § 1983 is incoherent. The claims under § 1983 are DISMISSED with leave to amend to clear up this confusio n, if possible in light of the authorities cited above and the requirement that defendants can only be liable under § 1983 for actions undertaken under color of state law. "The 59 Stipulation is APPROVED in part as follows. Because not a ll defendants stipulated to the filing of a Third Amended Complaint, and that pleading was filed without leave of court, it is STRICKEN. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 15(a)(2). The plaintiffs are however GRANTED leave to file a fourth amended complaint, which may (1) address the matters discussed above with respect to the YCA's and Lara's motion; and (2) implement the changes made in the stricken third amended complaint with respect to the PUSD defendants. The PUSD motion to dismiss is therefore DENIED AS MOOT, and the PUSD defendants may file a renewed Motion to Dismiss, including to dismiss any claim under 42 U.S.C. § 1983, once an amended complaint is on file. A Fourth Amended Complaint shall be filed within 14 days of the date this order is filed. (Marciel, M)

August 28, 2015 Opinion or Order Filing 29 ORDER signed by Judge Kimberly J. Mueller on 8/26/2015 DISMISSING the plaintiffs' second claim for negligent infliction of emotional distress with leave to amend; DISMISSING the plaintiffs' ninth claim brought under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 wi th leave to amend; DISMISSING the plaintiffs' twelfth claim for wrongful termination in violation of public policy with prejudice as alleged against Mr. Lara; DISMISSING the plaintiffs' twelfth claim for wrongful termination in violation of public policy with leave to amend as alleged against Youth Centers; ORDERING the plaintiffs to file an amended complaint within twenty-one (21) days; RESOLVING 5 Motion to Dismiss; DENYING 25 Motion to Amend the Complaint as moot.
