Can a federal judge exercise supplemental jurisdiction over a state law version of the FDCPA?
The following excerpt is from Weaver v. Sara Z. Boriskin, Esq., Gena Goldberger, Esq., CitiMortgage, Inc., No. 17-3413 (2nd Cir. 2018):
Because the district court declined to exercise supplemental jurisdiction over Weaver's remaining state law claims in light of the dismissal of his federal claims, the district court is free on remand to reconsider that aspect of its prior ruling. See Kolari v. N.Y.-Presbyterian Hosp., 455 F.3d 118, 122 (2d Cir. 2006). In so concluding, we express no opinion as to the proper resolution of Weaver's remaining FDCPA or state law claims.
