Robert J. Bryan
How Judge Bryan decides
Patterns drawn from this judge's own signed orders. Every observation links to the order it came from.
What persuades
Grants a defendant's motion for judgment on the pleadings or summary judgment where no amount of discovery could establish the claim.
“Defendant American Federation of State, County, and Municipal Employees, Council 28, AFL-CIO's Motion for Judgment on the Pleadings or Summary Judgment (Dkt. 41) is GRANTED. The Union Defendant is DISMISSED from the case.”
Procedural preferences
Grants a Rule 12 motion to dismiss and closes the case where the plaintiff's claims fail as a matter of law.
“Defendant JP Morgan Chase Bank's Motion to Dismiss (Dkt. 11) is GRANTED ... Defendant Northwest Trustee Services, Inc.'s Motion to Dismiss (Dkt. 15) is GRANTED ... The claims of Plaintiffs Yuliya Gossen and Aleksey Gossen (Dkt. 6-1) are DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE”
Cautions
On cross-motions for summary judgment, denies the plaintiff's and grants the defendant's, dismissing the action with prejudice where the record supports the defense.
“Defendants' Cross-Motion for Summary Judgment (Dkt. 26) is GRANTED. Plaintiffs action is DISMISSED with PREJUDICE.”
