I have a MVC .net framework project and on one of the DataTables I am getting the error: An item with the same key has already been added

I have even cleared out the data in the tables that are in use by that DataTable.

I am not able to post a link to the site. What can I do to troubleshoot this issue?

Here is the dataTable in question:

    var CasesEditor = new $.fn.dataTable.Editor({
        ajax: 'api/Cases',
        table: '#Cases',
        fields: [
            { label: "Case Number:", name: "Cases.CaseNumber" },
            {
                label: "Date Received:",
                name: "Cases.DateReceived",
                type: "datetime",
                format: 'MM-DD-YYYY',
                def: function () {
                    var d = new Date();
                    return d;
                }
            },
            {
                label: "Process Server:",
                name: "Cases.ProcessServerID",
                type: "select",
                placeholder: "<Select Server>",
                placeholderValue: 0,
                placeholderDisabled: false
            },
            {
                label: "Trial Date:",
                name: "Cases.TrialDate",
                type: "datetime",
                format: 'MM-DD-YYYY'
            },
            {
                label: "Case Status:",
                name: "Cases.CaseStatusID",
                type: "select",
                placeholder: "<Select a Status>",
                placeholderValue: 0,
                placeholderDisabled: false
            },
            { name: "Cases.EnteredBy", label: "Added By", type: "hidden", def: staffIDCookie },
            {
                label: "Date Added:",
                name: "Cases.DateAdded",
                type: "hidden",
                def: function () {
                    var d = new Date();
                    return d;
                }
            }
        ]
    });

    oh my goodness. I just saw the issue in my controller. Lines 62-63 are the same as 69-70. Just like the error said...duplicate key.

    sorry, please close this question.
