16630 Southfield Ltd. Partnership v. Flagstar Bank, F.S.B.

OPINION

SUTTON, Circuit Judge.

The plaintiffs claim that Flagstar Bank violated the Equal Credit Opportunity Act, 15 U.S.C. § 1691, et seq., by discriminating against them on account of national origin. Because they have not pled sufficient facts to raise a plausible inference of discrimination, we affirm the district court’s grant of a motion to dismiss their complaint under Civil Rule 12(b)(6).
