26 26 2 pgs order Memo Endorsement Fri 11/17 12:35 PM
MEMO ENDORSEMENT on re:25 Letter Request for Clarification and Recommendation, filed by Sherile Pahagas, Edith Mateo Mendoza. ENDORSEMENT: This case has been dismissed. The Court expresses no opinion regarding plaintiffs' counsel's assertion that " [w]hen a Court lacks jurisdiction, it is axiomatic that the dismissal is without prejudice." If the law is as plaintiffs' counsel states, this Court's November 9, 2017, Order (Doc. #23) will not prejudice plaintiffs' ability to reassert their claims. Plaintiffs' counsel's request that the Court "recommend" that the statute of limitations be tolled until defendants' are "no longer immune from the Court's jurisdiction" is DENIED. So Ordered. (Signed by Judge Vincent L. Briccetti on 11/17/17) (yv)

23 23 2 pgs order Order on Motion to Dismiss/Lack of Jurisdiction Thu 11/09 4:23 PM
MEMO ENDORSEMENT on re:22 Letter response to Defendants' motion to vacate the Clerk's Certificate of Default, quash service of process, and dismiss this action, filed by Sherile Pahagas, Edith Mateo Mendoza granting19 Motion to Dismiss for Lack of Jurisdiction. ENDORSEMENT: Notably, nothing in defendants' motion to dismiss based on diplomatic immunity challenges the factual allegations of the complaint. Moreover, although the German Mission to the United Nations states that it notified the United States Permanent Mission to the United Nations of this lawsuit (Doc. #10), the United States has not filed a statement of interest in this matter. If the allegations of the complaint are true, defendants' conduct was abhorrent and intolerable. Nevertheless, the Court respects plaintiffs' decision, as communicated to the Court by their competent counsel, not to oppose the motion to dismiss for the reasons stated in the attached letter. Accordingly, defendants' motion to vacate the Clerk's certificate of default, quash service of process, and dismiss this action is GRANTED. By November 16, 2017, defendants' counsel is directed to provide a copy of this Order to defendants as well as to the German Mission, and to certify by letter or otherwise, filed on the ECF docket, that counsel has done so. The hearing scheduled for November 15, 2017, is CANCELLED. The Clerk is instructed to terminate the motion (Doc. #19) and close this case. So Ordered. (Signed by Judge Vincent L. Briccetti on 11/9/2017) (yv)
