ORDER ON MOTION FOR RECONSIDERATION AND MOTION FOR SANCTIONS
Plaintiff Darrin McAllister, pro se, alleges violations of Title VII and the Americans
with Disabilities Act (ADA) against Connecticut Renaissance, Inc.; Greater Bridgeport
Adolescent Pregnancy Program, Incorporated (“GBAPP”); Patrick McAuliffe; Joseph
Riker; Linda Mosel; Bernadette Lynch-Gupta; and Sarah Nichols.
Defendants GBAPP, Sarah Nichols, Patrick McAuliffe, Joseph Riker, Linda
Mosel and Bernadette Lynch-Gupta filed motions to dismiss pursuant to Federal Rule of
Civil Procedure 12(b)(6) for failure to exhaust administrative remedies and failure to
state a claim. Connecticut Renaissance filed a motion to stay proceedings and compel
arbitration. On April 5, 2011, the Court granted the motions. On May 17, 2011, plaintiff
filed a motion for reconsideration of that decision, and on June 7, 2011, he filed a
motion for sanctions.
Upon review, the Court GRANTS the motion for reconsideration (doc. #41).
However, upon review, the Court adheres to its previous decision. Also upon review,
1

the Court DENIES the motion for sanction (doc. #44) because no grounds exist for the
imposition of sanctions against defendants.
