MEMORANDUM & ORDER granting 35 Motion to Dismiss: Based on the foregoing, defendants motion to dismiss the sixth cause of action must be GRANTED in its entirety. Plaintiffs have, at least implicitly, requested the right to replead. While such appl ications are granted liberally, they are routinely denied where repleading would be futile. In this case, the record reflects the filing of an initial complaint, two amended complaints and the previewing of supplemental allegations by plaintiff in response to the motion, none of which suffice to adequately plead the subject cause of action. Therefore, leave to replead is DENIED. SEE ATTACHED ORDER FOR FURTHER DETAILS. Ordered by Judge Gary R. Brown on 10/25/2023. (JC)
