  6. Lohan v. Perez et al

    MEMORANDUM in Support re Fully Briefed MOTION for Sanctions

    Filed August 14, 2012

    Accordingly, the Motion to Remand was sanctionable not only because it asserted false facts, but because it asserted frivolous legal arguments. See 16 James Wm. Moore et al., Moore's Federal Practice ¶ 107.41[4][b] (2012) ("Under Rule 11, a federal court may . .. sanction a party who makes a frivolous motion for remand."); FED. R. Civ. P.11(b)(2) (legal contentions must be "warranted by existing law"). 18 Case 2:11-cv-05413-DRH-ARL Document 37 Filed 08/14/12 Page 23 of 24 PageID #: 565 Response Letter, reflects complete disregard for this Court's and the Defendants' resources.

  8. Gibson et al v. United States Navy et al

    REPLY to opposition to motion re MOTION to Transfer Case

    Filed April 5, 2007

    Defendants have not shown that transfer is in the interests of justice or that any attorney would bring this case here. Instead, the unique circumstances of this District’s law would subject any attorney who brought this case to sanctions under Rule 11 and the D.C. Rules of Professional Conduct, and subject the attorney to malpractice. Consequently, this is not a case that could be brought in this District and the transfer was improper because it did not meet § 1404(a)’s criteria. Accordingly, the case should be transferred back to the Northern District of Florida.
