   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  14-1929
   U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota - Minneapolis   
[PUBLISHED] [Loken, Author, with Bye and Smith, Circuit Judges] Civil case - Interstate Land Sales Full Disclosure Act. For the court's prior opinion in the case see Streambend Props. II, LLC v. Ivy Tower Mpls., LLC, 451 F. App'x 627 (8th Cir. 2012). District court did not abuse its discretion by refusing to permit plaintiff to re-add a party whose prior dismissal on the merits was not challenged in the earlier appeal; plaintiff's Count alleging violation of Section 1703(a)(2)(A)&(C) did not satisfy the pleading requirements of Rule 9(b) because it failed to plead intentional wrongdoing (scienter) and the district court did not err in dismissing the Count; Rule 8 governed the Section 1703(a)(2)(B) allegations in Count I of the complaint, and it was error to dismiss them for failure to satisfy Rule 9; however, the Count failed to state a plausible claim and the dismissal is affirmed; no error in refusing to permit further amendment of the complaint; no error in granting defendant Commonwealth's motion for summary judgment as there was no evidence it made any representations or was involved in the sale of property to plaintiff; the district court did not err in refusing to exercise supplemental jurisdiction over plaintiff's state law claims.
