Xiangyuan Zhu v. St. Francis Health Ctr., No. 06-3113, UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE TENTH CIRCUIT, February 1, 2007, Filed
View this case - free  

Overview: Because the relevant facts in a plaintiff's federal complaint were all related in time, space and origin to the relevant facts in her state complaint, the district court did not err in concluding that they arose out of the same transaction or series of connected transactions and that plaintiff's RICO claim therefore was barred by res judicata.
