MEMORANDUM AND ORDER

Now pending before the Court is the Defendants' Motion to Dismiss or in the Alternative, Motion for a More Definitive Statement (ECF No. 12).

The Plaintiff has sued Defendant Baywood and two individuals, alleging sexual harassment and wrongful termination/retaliation (ECF No. 1). The Defendants have moved to dismiss the claims against them (ECF No. 12) and the Plaintiff has not responded.

The individual Defendants ("Irving Rivers" and "Cindy (have to find last name)") are not subject to the referenced claims as they do not qualify as "employers."

The other Defendant, "Holiday Inn and Baywood Hotels," could be subject to such claims, but any allegations against them must be properly pled. Here, the Plaintiff fails to allege facts sufficient to allow the Court to assess the plausibility of the claims. Accordingly, the claims against "Holiday Inn and Baywood Hotels" must be dismissed for failure to state a claim upon which relief might be granted, Rule 12(b)6, Federal Rules of Civil Procedure.

Accordingly, the claims against the individual Defendants ("Irving Rivers" and "Cindy (have to find last name)") are DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE. The claims against "Holiday Inn and Baywood Hotels" are DISMISSED WITHOUT PREJUDICE. The Clerk is directed to CLOSE THIS CASE.
