Date Filed Document Text
October 15, 2010 Opinion or Order Filing 35 ORDER signed by Judge Frank C. Damrell, Jr on 10/15/2010 ORDERING that defendants' 12 14 motions to dismiss are GRANTED, and plaintiff's 15 partial motion for summary judgment is DENIED. Specifically: (1) Because the court concludes t hat the claims alleged and relief sought by plaintiff in this case falls within the purview of the Anti-Injunction Act, and because none of the narrow exceptions to the Anti-Injunction Act apply, defendants' motions to dismiss on the grounds tha t the complaint is barred by the Anti-Injunction Act is GRANTED, and plaintiff's motion for partial summary judgment is DENIED. (2) Because plaintiff's claims would interfere with ongoing state court proceedings that implicate important sta te interests and plaintiff has an adequate opportunity to pursue their federal claims in those proceedings, the court must abstain from adjudicating these claims pursuant to Younger v. Harris. The Clerk of Court is directed to close this case. CASE CLOSED (Duong, D)
