Neiderhiser v. Borough Berwick

This appeal arises from an order of the district court, which dismissed plaintiffs claims brought pursuant to 42 U.S.C. ? 1983 on grounds that there was no viable case or controversy before the court, and therefore no jurisdiction. Because we find that plaintiffs did allege a cause of action encompassing a viable case or controversy, we conclude that the district court had jurisdiction, and will reverse.
