7th Circuit Court of Appeals
Indiana Land Trust #3082, et. al. v. Hammond Redevelopment Commission, et al.
24-1006
Civil. Appeal from the United States District Court for the Northern District of Indiana, Hammond Division. Magistrate Judge John Martin. Affirms the district court’s dismissal of Indiana Land Trust #3082 and trust’s beneficiaries Omar and Haitham Abuzir’s third amended complaint against the City of Hammond, the Hammond Redevelopment Commission and its members and Hammond Mayor Thomas McDermott with prejudice. Finds the Abuzirs have failed to state any claim that the city violated their constitutional rights. Also finds that adding a § 1983 conspiracy claim would have been futile, and so the district court did not abuse its discretion in denying that request.
Consolidated Grain and Barge Company v. Indiana Port Commission
22-2708
Civil. Appeal from the United States District Court for the Southern District of Indiana, Evansville Division. Judge Richard Young. Affirms the district court’s dismissal of Consolidated Grain and Barge Company’s complaint against the Indiana Port Commission. Finds the district court correctly concluded that Consolidated did not establish a breach of contract or promissory estoppel claim.
