Heading: Weinberger v. Tucker (ASCII II)

Text: On July 1, 2004, Weinberger and ASCII (collectively Weinberger with respect to this action) filed a suit against Tucker for fraud, breach of fiduciary duty, and professional negligence. Tucker moved to dismiss, based on collateral estoppel. On September 29, 2005, the United States District Court for the District of Columbia transferred the case to the Eastern District of Virginia (district court) and denied Tucker's motion without prejudice for mootness. Following the transfer, Tucker filed a renewed motion to dismiss, also based on collateral estoppel. Weinberger filed a response to the renewed motion to dismiss. The district court held a hearing on Tucker's motion, dismissed Weinberger's claim based on collateral estoppel, and entered a judgment for Tucker on November 9, 2006. Weinberger appeals to this Court.
