Conrad Keefe Cyr
How Judge Cyr decides
Patterns drawn from this judge's own signed orders. Every observation links to the order it came from.
What persuades
Cyr treated a reasonable identification mistake and diligent correction efforts as insufficient grounds to end a claim.
“Although Arrow might have gone to yet greater lengths to determine Sentry’s correct name, the initial error and subsequent efforts were not unreasonable, and the resulting delay does not justify dismissal of the claim.”
Cyr found irreparable harm where constitutional expression rights faced restriction before a final merits ruling.
“Plaintiffs have made a clear showing that irreparable injury is likely to result before a determination can be made on the merits unless preliminary injunctive relief is granted.”
Procedural preferences
Cyr assessed waiver by examining the full factual setting rather than relying on a single formal act.
“the court finds that Dusablon knowingly, intelligently and voluntarily waived his right to remain silent and to have counsel present.”
Cyr resolved jurisdictional doubt in favor of returning a removed action to state court.
“Where federal jurisdiction is doubtful the action should be remanded.”
Cautions
Cyr rejected constitutional claims supported only by conclusions rather than specific factual allegations.
“The complaint in this case contains few specific factual allegations and they do not support the conclusory constitutional claims asserted.”
Signed rulings
A grounded sample of orders signed by this judge, with the verbatim dispositive language.
“The motions to suppress must, in all respects, be and hereby are DENIED.”
“For the aforementioned reasons, Depositors’ motion to compel arbitration by Hartford, Martin, and FCS in their capacities as past and present general partners in FIS must be GRANTED.”
“Depositors’ motion to stay all other proceedings in this action pending arbitration is GRANTED.”
“On the basis of the foregoing findings and conclusions the motions to suppress must be DENIED.”
“it is ORDERED that NET’S motion for a TRO be DENIED.”
“The complaint must be and hereby is dismissed for failure to state a federal constitutional claim upon which relief can be granted.”
“Accordingly, it is ORDERED that the Secretary’s motion for summary judgment is GRANTED and that judgment be entered AFFIRMING the decision of the Secretary.”
“The separate Bivens-type cause of action asserted by plaintiff is DISMISSED. The due process claim brought under section 1983 is barred under the applicable two-year period of limitations borrowed from 14 M.R.S.A. § 753, and is therefore DISMISSED. The pendant state law claim for defamation is likewise DISMISSED.”
“Therefore, plaintiff does not fall within the reach of the statute and, accordingly, his motion is DENIED.”
“It is, therefore, ORDERED, that the petition for habeas corpus be DISMISSED and the writ DENIED.”
“ORDERED, that the order denying the application to reopen is VACATED and the application to reopen is REMANDED for further proceedings in accordance herewith.”
Caseload & timing
From public federal docket records for this judge.
Twenty returned tenure dockets were all terminated, but they carried no entry timelines or nature-of-suit labels. The profile therefore makes no claim about motion timing, disposition mix, or subject-matter distribution.
