Date Filed Document Text
February 10, 2016 Opinion or Order Filing 281 Memorandum Opinion and Order: Defendants' joint motion to strike and for sanctions (Doc. No. 274 ) is denied, with the caveat expressed herein. Plaintiffs' motion for leave to file a surreply (Doc. No. 280 ) is denied, there being no good cause for the additional filing. The Court will defer ruling on defendant Joseph Migliorini's motion to show cause and for sanctions (Doc. No. 250 ), as it is unrelated to the dispositive motions. Plaintiffs have failed in their burden to establish any of their federal claims that brought this fundamentally local dispute to federal court. Defendants are all entitled to summary judgment on all of plaintiffs' federal claims. Therefore, Doc. Nos. 192 , 193 , 194 , 195 , 197 , 198 and 199 are all granted in part. Having resolved all the federal claims, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. Section 1367(c)(2) & (3), the Court declines to exercise supplemental jurisdiction over any of the state claims and dismisses them all without prejudice. But, before entering final judgment, the Court will offer the parties another opportunity to resolve all issues in the case. By noon on February 16, 2016, the parties shall jointly advise the Court in writing whether they would like to h ave this case referred to Magistrate Judge Limbert for mediation. If the parties are not in agreement to mediate the case, the Court will enter final judgment in accordance with this Memorandum Opinion and Order. If the parties agree to mediation, it must be completed by no later than February 29, 2016. Judge Sara Lioi on 2/10/2016. (P,J)
