IN THE UNITED STATES COURT FOR THE DISTRICT OF UTAH CENTRAL DIVISION MICHAEL J. VAN LEEUWEN, Plaintiff, MEMORANDUM DECISION AND ORDER GRANTING DEFENDANTS MOTION TO DISMISS vs. INTERMOUNTAIN MORTGAGE COMPANY, INC., et al., Case No. 2:10-cv-744 TS Defendants. The Court has before it Defendants Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems, Inc., BAC Home Loans Servicing, L.P., and ReconTrust Company, N.A. s (collectively, Defendants ) Motion to Dismiss Plaintiff s Complaint pursuant to Fed.R.Civ.P. 12(b)(6).1 Defendants contend that each of the causes of action alleged in the Complaint have been repeatedly rejected by this Court and rely upon meritless misinterpretations of case law and Utah statutes. The Court agrees. In reviewing Plaintiff s arguments, the Court finds no meaningful distinction between this cause of action and the numerous actions the Court has previously dismissed. As 1 Docket No. 10. All other Defendants have been dismissed from this action previously. 1 persuasively demonstrated by Defendants in their memoranda, the present claims have been considered, and rejected, by this Court. The Court finds no reason to depart from its prior holdings that these claims fail as a matter of law. Because Plaintiff has failed to plead a cause of action upon which relief may be granted, it is therefore ORDERED that Defendants Motion to Dismiss (Docket No. 10) is GRANTED. It is further ORDERED that Plaintiff s Counsel s Motion to Withdraw as Counsel (Docket No. 23) is DENIED AS MOOT. The Clerk of the Court is directed to close this case forthwith. DATED May 9, 2011. BY THE COURT: _____________________________________ TED STEWART United States District Judge 2
