    MEMORANDUM OF LAW in Support re: 22 MOTION to Dismiss Plaintiff's Amended Complaint.. Document

    Filed October 15, 2013

    Defendants incorporate their arguments herein and, as discussed in Point II, Plaintiff’s claims are wholly without merit and should be dismissed. b) Violation of 18 U.S.C. § 241 and 42 U.S.C. § 1343(a): Plaintiff’s claim for a violation of his 13th Amendment rights under 18 U.S.C. § 241 (Am. Cplt., ¶¶ 131-135) is not among the acts enumerated in 18 U.S.C. § 1961 and therefore, is not a predicate act. 42 U.S.C. § 1343 is also not a predicate act pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 1961.

  2. McRee v. Goldman et al

    MOTION to Dismiss

    Filed July 8, 2011

    Plaintiff appears to be improperly alleging criminal conduct as the basis for his Negligence claim. As with his other claims, under the “Fifth Claim for Relief: Negligence,” Plaintiff cites “18 U.S.C. § 2, 3, 4, 241, 371, 1001, 1016, 1018, 1341, 1346, 1349” apparently as the basis for his negligence claim. (ECF No. 1. At p. 27).

  3. Andrews v. Ditech Mortgage Corp., Ditech Financial Llc

    MOTION to Dismiss for Lack of Jurisdiction with Roseboro,.

    Filed October 10, 2016

    Finally, Plaintiff identifies 18 U.S.C. § 241 as a statute Ditech purportedly violated. Again, 18 U.S.C. § 241 addresses criminal conspiracies, identifies those crimes that constitute a violation as kidnapping, aggravated sexual assault, and murder, and only prescribes criminal penalties. Plaintiff cannot seek relief premised on violations of criminal laws.

    ’” (quoting Alaji Salahuddin v. Alaji, 232 F.3d 305, 308 (2d Cir. 2000))). The Court declines to infer such rights.10 Accordingly, plaintiffs’ claims under 26 U.S.C. § 7214 and 18 U.S.C. §§ 241, 242, 872, 1341, and 1001 are dismissed as against the Moving Defendants. 10 Moreover, Section 1983 is not a means to assert violations of federal statutes.

  5. Dondi C. Stevens v. U.S. Bank, National Association et al

    NOTICE OF MOTION AND MOTION to Dismiss Complaint

    Filed January 10, 2017

    His claim under Section 1983 fails for the additional reason that NDEX is not a “person” and was not acting under “color of law” when it initiated foreclosure proceedings against the Property. His claim under Sections 241 and 1985 should also be dismissed because pursuant to the Deed of Trust, U.S. Bank was entitled to pursue a non-judicial foreclosure in the event that Plaintiff defaulted under the Loan and could bring NDEX in as foreclosure trustee. It therefore follows that Plaintiff’s civil rights causes of action should be dismissed.

    Filed October 26, 2016

    Cato v. United States, 70 F.3d 1103, 1196 (9th Cir. 1995). ARGUMENT Plaintiffs’ FAC asserts nine separate Claims for Relief: (1) violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1961 et seq. (RICO); (2) violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1962(a)(d) (RICO- Conspiracy); (3) violation of 18 U.S.C. § 175 (Promoting the Sale and Use of Biological Weapons); (4) violation of 18 U.S.C. § 178 (Promoting the Sale and Use of Chemical Weapons); (5) violation of 18 U.S.C. § 241 (Infringement of 1 There is some question as to whether dismissal based on Eleventh Amendment immunity should be analyzed under Rule 12(b)(6) or as a jurisdictional issue under Rule 12(b)(1). Elwood v. Drescher, 456 F.3d 943, 949 (9th Cir.2006)(12(b)(6)); but see Savage v. Glendale Union High Sch., 343 F.3d 1036, 1040–44 (9th Cir.2003) (jurisdictional issue under Rule 12(b)(1)).

    1980). Detective Saldate acknowledges the above analysis, which was explained by the Arizona Court of Appeals’ memorandum decision, and yet, offers no additional facts or argument in support of his claim that he might possibly be subject to prosecution under 18 U.S.C. § 241. Because no co- conspirator exists, Detective Saldate cannot reasonably apprehend a danger of prosecution under this statute.

  8. Langermann v. Dubbin et al

    MOTION to Dismiss 9 Amended Complaint , Motion to Dismiss Case as Frivolous 9 Amended Complaint

    Filed September 15, 2014

    Fourth, Fifth, and Sixth Causes of Action (Violation of 18 USC §§ 241, 214, & 245) Through Counts IV, V, and VI, Langermann purports to allege that, by conditioning his settlement benefits upon his compliance with the terms of the settlement agreement, the Defendants have somehow infringed upon his “federally protected activities” and his Fourth Amendment rights. He seeks relief under 18 USC §§ 241, 242, and 245 by broadly alleging, without any facts, that the Defendants “conspired to oppress, threaten and intimidate Langermann” with acts that were “willful and oppressive and malicious.” Am. Compl.
