How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

  • holding that because the state action does not include some claims asserted in the federal action, the cases are not parallel
  • holding that district court abused its discretion by abstaining where “two suits share[d] some issues” but the state action did not include party to federal action or plaintiff’s claim for restitution
  • finding that “federal and state proceedings are not parallel” where the state court case did not involve the same parties and claims
  • finding that one of the reasons the state and federal actions were not parallel was that the federal action had a claim that was not present in the state action
  • reversing the grant of a stay when the state case and federal case were not parallel but the state case would have resolved some issues
  • claim not parallel where the state action did not encompass one of the claims presented in federal action
