“a court may properly take judicial notice of 'matters of public record' and other information that, under Federal Rule of Evidence 201, constitute 'adjudicative facts.'”
6 later decisions quote this exact passage · from the majority“In a Rule 12(b)(6) context, the reviewing court must determine whether the complaint alleges sufficient facts "to raise a right to relief above the speculative level" and "to state a claim to relief that is plausible on its face." This directive ordinarily limits a court's review to the "well-pled facts in the complaint[, which it must view] in the light most favorable to the plaintiff." While no absolute bar exists, a motion to dismiss under Rule 12(b)(6) does not typically resolve the applicability of defenses to a well-pled claim.”
