U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 08-1894
District of North Dakota - Fargo
[PUBLISHED] [Bowman, Author, with Melloy and Smith, Circuit Judges]
Civil case - civil rights. District court erred in finding plaintiffs' claims
were barred by the Rooker-Feldman doctrine; however, to decide the
merits of the plaintiffs' Section 1983 action would violate the Full Faith
and Credit Act, and the district court did not err in dismissing the
complaint; dismissal modified to be a dismissal with prejudice.
