ORDER
THIS MATTER is before the Court on the Defendant’s Motion to
Dismiss [Doc. 4].
The facts, legal issues, and causes of action asserted by the parties
in the present matter are substantially similar to those in the case of
Barnard, et al. v. SunTrust Bank, et al., No. 1:11-cv-00289-MR (W.D.N.C.),
and the same attorney appears on behalf of the Plaintiffs in each of these
actions. Even though these cases have not been consolidated, the Order
of this Court previously entered in Barnard addresses and disposes of all of
the issues raised by the motion currently before the Court in this matter.
The Order in Barnard, therefore, is incorporated herein, and the current
motion will be disposed of in accord therewith.
ORDER
IT IS, THEREFORE ORDERED that the Motion to Dismiss [Doc. 4] is
GRANTED IN PART and DENIED IN PART. Specifically, with respect to
the Plaintiffs’ claim for negligent misrepresentation, the Motion to Dismiss
[Doc. 4] is GRANTED and this claim is DISMISSED. In all other respects,
the Motion to Dismiss [Doc. 4] is DENIED.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
Signed: September 30, 2013
