United States Seventh Circuit
Courtney v. Halleran, 05-1244
In a suit to recover funds lost after a Savings & Loan failure, the district court's judgment is affirmed where: 1) the court properly denied the requested declaratory and injunctive relief under 12 U.S.C. section 1821(d)(11)(A) since the requested relief would violate the prohibition on judicial interference with actions of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation; and 2) the district court correctly dismissed state law claims without prejudice since there were no independent grounds for federal jurisdiction. The judgment is modified to show that RICO claims were dismissed on the merits, not for lack of standing.
