It ought to be noted
It ought to be noted the first-to-file rule might not bar all second-in-time cases. Some areas have lately held that, in rare instances in which the first-filed complaint is jurisdiction defective or legally infirm under Rule 9(b), the 2nd-in-time situation won't be barred underneath the first-in-time provisions.
