Kathryn Gillette v. Gaming Entertainment

U.S. Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit
Kathryn Gillette v. Gaming Entertainment, 685 F. App'x 495 (7th Cir. 2017)

Kathryn Gillette v. Gaming Entertainment

Opinion

ORDER

Kathryn Gillette defaulted on loans from eight casinos. Shé then sued the casinos, alleging violations of various consumer-protection laws. The district court dismissed Gillette’s claims, and she appeals.

We ordered the parties to submit supplemental briefs addressing the participation in bankruptcy of appellee RDI Caesars Riverboat Casino. After reviewing the supplemental briefs, this court has determined that the district court’s judgment of September 14, 2016, is nonfinal due to the bankruptcy of appellee RDI Caesars Riverboat Casino. See 11 U.S.C. § 362; Maritime Elec. Co., Inc. v. United Jersey Bank, 959 F.2d 1194, 1203-09 (3d Cir. 1991). This court therefore lacks jurisdiction over the appeal because the district court has not disposed of all claims by all parties. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 54(b); see also id.; see also Tradesman Int’l, Inc. v. Black, 724 F.3d 1004, 1006-07 (7th Cir. 2013). Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED that the appeal is DISMISSED for lack of appellate jurisdiction.
