DECISION AND ORDER

WARREN, District Judge.

Presently before the Court are the several motions to dismiss filed by the ten named defendants in this case. Because the Court concludes, as stated herein, that the doctrines of judicial, prosecutorial, and witness immunity and the limitations on the scope of 42 U.S.C. § 1983 preclude the plaintiffs from maintaining the present action for alleged violations of their constitutional rights, the defendants’ motions to dismiss must be granted. In addition, the movants will be awarded their costs incurred in defending this action to date.
