“A motion to dismiss . . . is not favored and rarely granted.” This is especially
true “when the asserted theory of liability is novel or extreme,” as such cases
“should be explored in the light of facts as developed by the evidence, and,
generally, not dismissed before trial because of the mere novelty of the
allegations.” In reviewing a motion to dismiss, we consider whether, taking all of
the nonmoving party’s factual allegations as true, “‘it appears beyond doubt’ that
there exist no facts or circumstances that would entitle the plaintiff to relief.” We
treat all reasonable inferences from the complaint as true, and we assume that the
movant’s contravening assertions are false.
