MOTION FOR JUDGMENT ON THE FIFTH COUNT I
AND REMAND OF THE REMAINING COUNTS
On January 28, 2000, the plaintiff filed this action in Superior Court. On February
22, 2000, the defendants removed the case to federal court, asserting the Fifth Count
as the jurisdictional basis for removal. The Fifth Count alleged a federal cause of action
under 42 U.S.C. § 1983. y
On September 28, 2001, the court granted the defendants motion for summary
judgment on the plaintiffs procedural due process theory. On October 31, 2003, the
court granted the defendants' motion for summary judgment on the plaintiffs
substantive due process theory. _
The federal claims have now- been adjudicated, but the court’s formal entry of
judgment has been made. Without a final judgment, the case cannot proceed. The
plaintiff now moves that the court grant judgment for the defendants on the Fifth Count
and remand the remaining claims to Connecticut Superior Court for further proceedings, g
I
or dismiss them for lack of federal jurisdiction.
