Hoblock v. Albany Cty. Bd. of Elections
422 F.3d 77 (2d Cir. 2005)
Key Principle
A federal claim is barred by Rooker-Feldman only where the federal plaintiff actually complains of an injury caused by a state-court judgment; the doctrine does not reach plaintiffs who were neither parties to the state action nor in privity with the state-court losers.
