Bumb grants the city and its officials' motion to dismiss the farmer's federal claims against them, which allege a conspiracy to harm him and his farming business led by the city's fire marshal and his family. The majority of the farmer's allegations are time-barred, since the alleged conduct giving rise to the suit largely took place in and around 2018, well before the July 2020 cutoff for claims brought under the Civil Rights Act and the New Jersey Civil Rights Act. He has also failed to state a plausible selective enforcement claim, since he has not established that his neighbors were similarly situated under the city's plumbing code, and his substantive and procedural due process claims similarly fail. The failure of these claims leads the court to decline to exercise supplemental jurisdiction over a RICO claim.
