Filing 35 MEMORANDUM AND ORDER. (See Full Order.) Plaintiffs' prayer for injunctive relief is dismissed for lack of Article III Standing, as their first claimed injury fails to allege an injury in fact required for injunctive relief. Additionally, for t he same reasons, Plaintiffs cannot meet the Lyons Court's standard to seek injunctive relief through their second claimed injury. Finally, allegations of imminent harm from discriminatory police practices are insufficient to gain federal relief in the form of an injunction. Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Defendants' Motion to Dismiss Plaintiffs' request for injunctive relief is GRANTED. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Plaintiffs shall file an amended complaint which outlines and specifically delineates their claims of violations of the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment as a separate numbered count within twenty days of the date of this order. The amended complaint shall not include any additional factual allegations. Signed by District Judge E. Richard Webber on 12/9/2015. (CBL) |
Filing 28 MEMORANDUM AND ORDER - In its Memorandum and Order on July 16, 2015, addressing Defendants Motion to Dismiss, the Court requested the parties submit further briefing on whether Plaintiffs have constitutional standing for declaratory and injunctive relief. The Court asked the parties to specifically address the issue of federalism in regards to a federal court issuing an injunction against a state agency. Plaintiffs have failed to do as the Court requested. Simply restating the allegations contained in the complaint does not address the issue of whether those allegations meet the standards required for injunctive relief. Plaintiffs repeatedly reference the injury incurred by Plaintiffs in the loss of their son, but this does not ad dress the continuing harm required for injunctive relief. Beyond the few citations provided in the opening pages of their brief, Plaintiffs provide no support for their assertions. The Court expects Plaintiffs to include citations to precedent whe n asserting an argument. The Court has previously determined the other issues in Defendants Motion to Dismiss; thus, Plaintiffs' brief should address solely the issues raised regarding injunctive relief. Plaintiffs shall file, within fourteen days of this order, an amended brief. As Defendants have already filed their brief and Plaintiffs have the opportunity to address Defendants' arguments with this ruling, Defendants will be given the opportunity to respond to Plaintiffs' amended brief within fourteen days of its filing. Signed by District Judge E. Richard Webber on August 18, 2015. (MCB) |

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Plaintiffs file an amended complaint within twenty days of this order. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Defendants' Motion to Dismiss on Argument VI [ECF No. 6, pg. 21-23] will be held in abeyance pending further briefing by Plaintiffs and Defendants within twenty days of this order.
