Filing 132 MEMORANDUM (Order to follow as separate docket entry)Conclusion.Like every saga, this one must have an end. This case has evolved from a domestic dispute and has now been aired in three separate courts over a period of almost seven years. While the Court understands Plaintiff Kundratics frustration at the failure of his marriage and the resulting lengthy process to determine the property rights and custody rights of the parties, Kundratics disappointment with the various decisions made in the Luzerne County Court of Common Pleas is not the stuff of which a federal lawsuit is made. He has not even attempted to provide a plausible explanation of why three different attorneys would prostitute their services to suit the needs of Defendant Th omas. More importantly, Kundratic has produced no evidence that the sordid conspiracy he alleges ever existed. His surmise and belief that it did, standing alone, is not enough to create a material fact in dispute here.See Lexington Insurance Compa ny and Berkely Investment Group, supra. There is simply no evidence that has been brought to this Courts attention from which a reasonable juror could conclude that Kundratic is entitled to relief. Consequently, the motions for summary judgment filed by all remaining Defendants must be granted. An Order consistent with this determination shall be filed contemporaneously herewith.Dated: November 26, 2013Signed by Honorable Richard P. Conaboy on 11/26/13. (cc) |
Filing 64 MEMORANDUM Whie we will deny Thomas's motion to dismiss for the reasons cited abvoe, we do note that it is incumbent upon Plaintiff Kundratic to develop through the discovery process some evidence of Thomas inappropriately abusing his position a s a "state actor" to Kundratic's detriment i nthe relevant time-periond, July 2, 2009 throgh January 4, 2012. We also emphasize that the failure to adduce such evidence wil render Kundratic's case vulnerable to subswquent case dispositive motions by Thomas and other Defendants. re 41 MOTION to Dismiss filed by Gary Thomas Signed by Honorable Richard P. Conaboy on 11/5/12. (cc) |
