View this case - free |

Overview: Since the FDIC's corporate liability was limited to the assets of a receivership, and since the receivership was terminated and without assets, there was no possible relief for the court to order for two executives of a failed bank against the FDIC in its corporate capacity; the court dismissed for lack of jurisdiction under U.S. Const. art. III.

Overview: Defendant's ex-wife's involvement in the investigation which resulted in his conviction under 18 U.S.C.S. § 545 and 50 U.S.C.S. app. §§ 5(b)(1), 16, did not violate the Fourth Amendment because the fact that the ex-wife was spying on defendant did not by itself amount to a constitutional violation, even if it was at the behest of the government.

UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE SEVENTH CIRCUIT, March 22, 2006, Decided
View this case - free |
|||||
Overview: Insurer's declaratory judgment action should not have been dismissed for failure to show more than $75,000 in dispute because the suit was subject to dismissal only if the court could say for a legal certainty that the amount at risk was less than $75,000, which was not the case at the time this suit was filed.

P, app. 1, § 12.06.
