Filing 119 ENTRY ON DEFENDANTS' MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT - This cause is before the Court on the Defendants' motion for summary judgment (Dkt. No. 107 ). This motion is fully briefed, and the Court, being duly advised, GRANTS IN PART the motion . Drawing all reasonable inferences in the Plaintiffs' favor, the Plaintiffs have not demonstrated that there is a genuine issue of triable fact as to whether the Wayts engaged in false advertising under the Lanham Act. Therefore, the Court GRANTS the Defendants' motion for summary judgment with respect to this claim (Count I). The Court finds that the presumption of relinquishing jurisdiction should be followed in this case, and therefore declines to continue exercising supple mental jurisdiction over the parties' state law claims. Dismissal of the parties' state law claims shall be without prejudice to reflect that nothing in this action prohibits the parties from pursuing any state law claims in state court. For the reasons set forth above, the Defendants' motion for summary judgment (Dkt. No. 107 ) is GRANTED with respect to Count I, the Plaintiffs' false advertising claim under the Lanham Act against Defendants Tex A. Wayt and Ed Wayt. The Court declines to further exercise supplemental jurisdiction over any of the Plaintiffs' remaining state law claims against Tex A. Wayt and Ed Wayt or the Defendants' counterclaims in this matter and, therefore, DISMISSES all remaining state law claims and counterclaims WITHOUT PREJUDICE. Signed by Judge William T. Lawrence on 10/31/2016. (BRR) |
