Marshall v. Maginnis

How courts have described this case

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

• finding an action against a state judge “palpably frivolous” as judges enjoy “absolute immunity from liability for damages for judicial acts performed within [their] jurisdiction”
• finding Rooker-Feldman stripped the federal court of jurisdiction over a suit which was inextricably intertwined with a state court divorce decree despite the fact that the state decree was pending on appeal
• federal district court had no jurisdiction to consider plaintiff's Sec. 1983 action against ex-wife, her lawyer, and state judge who rendered divorce and child custody decree because such action was \inextricably intertwined\ with the state court decision
