  1. The Twombly decision is huge. By explicitly repudiating the language from Conley v. Gibson that plaintiffs’ lawyers have been relying on for so long (”a complaint should not be dismissed for failure to state a claim unless it appears beyond doubt that the plaintiff can prove no set of facts in support of his claim which would entitle him to relief”), Twombly will make it much easier for defendants to win Rule 12(b)(6) motions to dismiss.
