John Michal Arwood v. City of Coral Gables

[DO NOT PUBLISH] IN THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE ELEVENTH CIRCUIT ________________________ FILED No. 03-13795 U.S. COURT OF APPEALS ELEVENTH CIRCUIT Non-Argument Calendar August 12, 2005 ________________________ THOMAS K. KAHN CLERK D. C. Docket No. 02-20778-CV-ASG JOHN MICHAEL ARWOOD, MARY LONG, et.al, Plaintiffs-Appellants, versus CITY OF CORAL GABLES, a municipality, Defendant-Appellee. ________________________ Appeal from the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida _________________________ (August 12, 2005) Before TJOFLAT, DUBINA and BLACK, Circuit Judges. PER CURIAM: Appellants appeal the district court’s grant of the City of Coral Gables’ motion to dismiss their complaint. After reviewing the briefs and record on appeal, we affirm for the reasons stated in the district court’s well-reasoned order dated May 14, 2003.1 AFFIRMED. 1 We reject Appellants’ contention the district court erred by considering facts developed in Allocco v. Coral Gables, 221 F. Supp. 2d 1317 (S.D. Fla. 2002), aff’d 88 F. Appx. 380 (Table) (11th Cir. 2003), in deciding the motion to dismiss, thus converting the motion to dismiss into a summary judgment motion. The district court considered facts from Allocco as they were identical to the allegations in the Arwood complaint or were relevant to the determination of whether there was any set of facts that could enable Appellants to amend their complaint to successfully withstand a motion to dismiss. 2
