Jamel K. Semper
How Judge Semper decides
Patterns drawn from this judge's own signed orders. Every observation links to the order it came from.
What persuades
In trade-secret and restrictive-covenant cases he denies a Rule 12(b)(6) motion to dismiss where the complaint adequately alleges the claim.
“ORDERED that Defendant's motion pursuant to 12(b)(6) (ECF 7) is hereby DENIED.”
Procedural preferences
He refers matters to a magistrate judge and rules by adopting the unopposed report and recommendation, granting the underlying motions as recommended.
“ORDERED that Defendants' motions to dismiss (ECF 17; ECF 18; ECF 46) are GRANTED”
Cautions
In ADA Title III website-accessibility class actions he grants a motion to dismiss where the pleading does not state a viable claim.
“For the reasons stated above, Defendant's Motion to Dismiss (ECF 17) is GRANTED. The First Amended Complaint (ECF 14) is dismissed without prejudice.”
In FDCPA class suits over time-barred-debt collection letters he dismisses for lack of Article III standing where the plaintiff alleges no concrete injury.
“Defendant's Motion to Dismiss (ECF 4) is GRANTED. The Complaint (ECF 1) is dismissed without prejudice.”
