How courts have described this case

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

  • recognizing that FDIC was appointed Washington Mutual’s receiver on September 25, 2008
  • noting that “courts would usually stay pending cases to allow for administrative exhaustion of claims ”
  • explaining that motions for reconsideration under 59(e) are not intended to introduce new arguments that could and should have been introduced prior to judgment
  • noting it is not the job of a court to create arguments for a party who has not made them or to “assemble them from assorted hints and references throughout the brief.”
  • plaintiff-borrower’s motion to substitute Chase as a party failed because the agreement Chase signed with the FDIC when it acquired the relevant assets excluded assumption of liability for borrower claims
  • “It is not our job, especially in a counseled civil case, to create arguments for someone who has not made them or to assemble them from assorted hints and references scattered throughout the brief.”
