1Opinion of the Court
JOHNSON, Circuit Judge:
The Resolution Trust Corporation (RTC) sued several officers and directors (collectively, “the defendants”) of a failed savings and loan institution alleging 1) negligence, 2) breach of fiduciary duty and 3) gross negligence. Under Fed.R.Civ.P. 12(b)(6), the district court dismissed the negligence and breach of fiduciary duty claims holding that they failed to state a claim on which relief could be granted. The district court then certified this case pursuant to Fed.R.Civ.P. 54(b) and the RTC appeals. We AFFIRM.
