What the court decided

The judgment states that, for the reasons given in the court’s Opinion and Order dated October 30, 2024, Stripe, Inc.’s motion to dismiss was granted.

Federal claims

The judgment states that Charisses Moore’s federal claims were dismissed with prejudice under Federal Rules of Civil Procedure 8(a) and 12(b)(6). Rule 8(a) concerns the basic requirements for a complaint, and Rule 12(b)(6) allows dismissal for failure to state a legally sufficient claim. The judgment also states that the federal claims were considered frivolous under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(B)(i).

State-law claims

The judgment states that Moore’s state-law claims were dismissed and refers to refiling in state court. However, the supplied text is incomplete at the point that would state the exact legal effect of that dismissal. The record provided therefore does not permit a more precise description of whether the state-law dismissal was with or without prejudice.

Other provisions

The court warned Moore that if she filed future actions in the court that were frivolous or duplicative, it could bar her from filing new actions without prepaying the filing fee unless she first obtained the court’s permission. The court also certified under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(3) that an appeal would not be taken in good faith and denied fee-free status for purposes of an appeal. The case was closed.

Result

The motion to dismiss was granted; the federal claims were dismissed with prejudice; the state-law claims were dismissed with an incomplete description of the precise refiling effect; and the case was closed.
