Clerk's Notes for Motion Hearing: Argument heard on motion to dismiss 86 . Motion DENIED. Court may not be in the right position to determine mootness in this case, as the relief requested is still an injunction. Declaratory judgment may be the better remedy, but that would require amendment of the current complaint. Plaintiffs may amend their complaint by next Friday, 6/17. If amended complaint is filed, all counsel will confer to create a briefing schedule for a new round of briefing for a motion to dismiss the amended complaint.

Judge Douglas P. Woodlock: ELECTRONIC ORDER DISMISSING CASE entered. The landscape of this certified class action was transformed by the amendment of Mass. Gen Laws ch. 123, sec. 35, which the plaintiffs had challenged to the degree it provided a basis for civil commitments to MCI-Framingham. The defendants take the position that in the wake of the amendment all such commitments have ceased and that there are no plans to make such commitments in the future. The parties, however, have continued to circle each other suspiciously. The defendants seek dismissal of the case based upon their statement of present intention; the plaintiffs seek a judgment interpreting sec. 35 as amended to prevent civil commitments to MCI-Framingham as a matter of law irrespective of the stated present intentions of the relevant state actors. There have been no submissions in almost two years to suggest that there is any foreseeable circumstance in which civil commitments to MCI-Framingham may be undertaken. This case lacks the type of foreseeable concrete injury that would support any relief the plaintiffs might successfully seek. It is plainly moot. Nevertheless, given the defendants' studied refusal to concede that sec. 35 categorically bars any civil commitments to MCI-Framingham, prudence - not to mention this court's duty to protect the inchoate interests of class members - requires making explicit that this dismissal is without prejudice to any future litigation challenging civil commitments to MCI-Framingham should they ever resume. Accordingly, the Clerk is directed to enter a judgment dismissing this case without prejudice. (Woodlock, Douglas) (Entered: 03/31/2018)
