1Opinion of the Court
LAFFITTE, District Judge.
This matter is before the Court on appeal from the district court’s decision, 669 F.Supp. 1173, granting defendants’ motions for summary judgment, to strike scandalous pleadings, and to impose attorney’s fees sanctions on plaintiffs' counsel. We find plaintiffs-appellants’ arguments and theories to be no less muddled and no more meritorious now than they were below and, accordingly, affirm the district court’s grant of summary judgment on the ground of lack of personal jurisdiction over the defendants.
