• declining to apply Rooker Feldman when the alleged harm was from conduct leading to the settlement, not the court’s ordering of the settlement
• “Since federal district courts are granted original — and not appellate — jurisdiction, cases that function as de facto appeals of state-court judgments are therefore jurisdictionally barred.”
