Federal Court Dismisses Gustafson v. Poitra Dispute (Again)

Here are the materials in Gustafson v. Poitra (D. N.D.):

19 Motion to Dismiss

23 Response

34 DCT Order

An excerpt:

The juvenile behavior and attitude of the Poitras that triggered the need for the issuance of the TRO in October 2012 is difficult for any reasonable person to understand. However, the plaintiffs cannot use the Declaratory Judgment Act as a vehicle to resolve a multitude of long-standing disputes which neither raise a federal question nor bear any relationship to a lawsuit over which the Court would have jurisdiction.
