COMSCORE’S MOTION TO DISMISS UNDER RULES 12(B)(1) and 12(B)(6)
Defendant comScore, Inc. (“comScore”) hereby moves pursuant to Rule 12(b)(1) and
12(b)(6) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure to dismiss this action in its entirety on the
ground that: (1) Plaintiffs lack Article III standing and therefore subject matter jurisdiction is
lacking pursuant to Rule 12(b)(1); and (2) Plaintiffs’ Complaint fails to state a claim upon which
relief may be granted, pursuant to Rule 12(b)(6). comScore respectfully submits that the
Complaint should be dismissed with prejudice.
This motion is based on the concurrently-filed Memorandum of Law in support of
comScore’s Motion to Dismiss under Rules 12(b)(1) and 12(b)(6) and the Declaration of John
O’Toole in Support Thereof.
comScore also requests that the Court hear oral argument on its Motion.
