Date Filed Document Text
May 29, 2019 Opinion or Order Filing 344 Order granting 329 Motion for Reconsideration. Upon reconsideration, this court concludes as a matter of law that a company that fails to provide WARN Act notice may not invoke the "faltering company" or "business circumstances&quo t; exceptions to reduce damages. Accordingly, this court vacates its rulings on Plaintiffs' first MIL and Defendants third MIL. Plaintiffs' first MIL [ECF 244] is hereby GRANTED. Defendants' third MIL is hereby DENIED [ECF 305], as it is no longer relevant whether a "plant closing" occurred. Signed by Chief Judge Frances M. Tydingco-Gatewood on 5/29/2019. (fad, )
September 30, 2017 Opinion or Order Filing 220 Order denying Plaintiffs' 162 Motion for Summary Judgment; denying Defendants' 172 Motion for Summary Judgment; denying Defendants' 166 Motion to Strike Jury Demand Pursuant to Fed R. Civ P. 39(a)(2). Signed by Chief Judge Frances M. Tydingco-Gatewood on 9/30/2017. (fad, )
March 7, 2017 Opinion or Order Filing 183 Order granting 126 Motion to Certify Class. Signed by Chief Judge Frances M. Tydingco-Gatewood on 3/7/2017. (fad, )
December 30, 2016 Opinion or Order Filing 153 Order granting 101 Defendants' Motion to Dismiss Plaintiffs' gross negligence and negligence per se claims. Plaintiffs were at-will employees, and Defendants owed them no duty of care in terminating their employment under Guam law. Addit ionally, Plaintiffs' negligence per se claim is improper because it seeks to impermissibly use the WARN Act to recover common-law remedies in circumvention of Congress's intent. Finally, Plaintiffs' claim for punitive damages is STRICKEN because their negligence claims have been dismissed, and the WARN Act does not permit punitive damages. Signed by Chief Judge Frances M. Tydingco-Gatewood on 12/30/2016. (fad, )
March 25, 2016 Opinion or Order Filing 92 Order denying 16 Motion to Dismiss; denying 35 Motion to Dismiss Complaint and Memorandum Pursuant to Rule 12(b)(1); granting Plaintiffs leave to amend the Complaint in accordance with this order. The Amended Complaint shall be filed no later than fourteen days from the date of this order. Signed by Chief Judge Frances M. Tydingco-Gatewood on 3/25/2016. (fad, )
