    BRIEF IN SUPPORT re MOTION to Dismiss Party and Amend Caption

    Filed April 26, 2017

    An issue of material fact is “genuine” if the evidence is such that a reasonable jury could return a verdict for the nonmoving party. Anderson, 477 U.S. at 257; Brenner v. Local 514, United Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners of America, 927 F.2d 1283, 1287-88 (3d Cir. 1991). When determining whether there is a genuine issue of material fact, the court must view the facts and all reasonable inferences in favor of the nonmoving party.

  2. Lambert v. Wolff, et al

    RESPONSE

    Filed June 15, 2007

    A. THE CONTINUING VIOLATION PRINCIPLES CONTINUE TO APPLY AFTER NATIONAL RAILROAD PASSENGER CORPORATION V. MORGAN, O’CONNOR V. NEWARK, AND LEDBETTER V. GOODYEAR TIRE In federal causes of action, when a defendant’s conduct is part of a continuing practice, an action is timely so long as the last act evidencing the continuous practice falls within the limitations period. Brenner v. Local 514, United Bhd. of Carpenters, 927 F.2d 1283, 1295 (3d Cir. 1991). To establish a continuing practice, a “plaintiff must establish that the defendant’s conduct is more than the occurrence of isolated or sporadic acts.”
