Disabilities, 64 F.3d 810, 817 (2d Cir.1995). Hence, the defamation claims arise under state law only, and the district court properly declined to exercise supplemental jurisdiction over them. For the foregoing reasons, we AFFIRM the judgment of the district court on alternative grounds. We DISMISS all claims against all defendants. * It is specifically noted that, in affirming the result reached by the district court on alternative grounds, this Court has not addressed, and offers no opinion on, the complicated questions of whether a Connecticut probate judge would enjoy absolute immunity for ordering a person to be arrested, as alleged by Collins, or whether a conservator would be immune for requesting such an action by the police. See Brookings v. Clunk, 389 F.3d 614 (6th Cir.2004) (<HOLDING>); see also Tucker v. Outwater, 118 F.3d 930,
