1Opinion of the Court
ORDER ON DEFENDANT’S MOTION TO DISMISS
WOODCOCK, District Judge.
James and Olivia Marcello filed suit against the state of Maine and several other parties alleging a conspiracy to violate 42 U.S.C. § 1983. This Order addresses the motion to dismiss filed by Farrell, Rosenblatt & Russell (FRR), a law firm. See Def. FRR’s Mot. to Dismiss (Docket #11) (Def.’s Mot.). Because there is no basis to conclude that FRR has been a state actor or to conclude that FRR engaged in a civil conspiracy against the Plaintiffs, this Court grants Defendant’s motion to dismiss. 1
