How courts have described this case

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

  • “[I]n light of the minimal requirements of notice pleading, broad and conclusory allegations are not fatal to a plaintiff’s claim 11 at the motion-to-dismiss stage.”
  • “Sovereign immunity can only be waived pursuant to a legislative act which specifically provides that sovereign immunity is waived and describes the extent of such waiver.”
  • “At this early stage of the case, it was premature for the trial court to conclude that [defendant’s] duties were discretionary rather than ministerial . . . .”
  • “On appeal, we review de novo the trial court’s grant of a motion to dismiss a complaint. We construe the complaint in the light most favorable to the plaintiff, with all doubts resolved in her favor.” (citation omitted)
