Orlando Attorneys Secure Summary Judgment for LLC Manager

Rod Lundy and Luc Adeclat, attorneys in our Orlando office, prevailed on a summary judgment in Brevard County on behalf of an LLC’s manager who was sued along with the LLC in a negligence and premises action alleging plaintiff was injured by an LLC employee.  The court agreed sections 605.0304 and 605.04093, Florida Statutes, provided the individual manager tort immunity as the conduct alleged did not fall within the limited exceptions. As such, the court granted the defense motion and entered judgment for the LLC manager.  A motion for fees and costs per section 57.105, Florida Statutes, and an unaccepted proposal for settlement is pending.

Chandler Black and Amy Klotz Prevail on Motion to Dismiss for Fraud in Premises Liability Matter

Chandler Black and Amy Klotz prevailed on a motion to dismiss for fraud on the court in a premises liability action. Based on records from medical providers, which the plaintiff failed to disclose, Chandler and Amy showed that the plaintiff provided false interrogatory responses and deposition testimony regarding her alleged injuries. The plaintiff argued that she inadvertently failed to disclose prior complaints of pain in an area of her body she claimed sustained injury in the accident due to her age (70). She also took positions inconsistent with  information contained in the medical records. Chandler and Amy pointed out that, in her deposition, the plaintiff provided detailed information regarding medical treatment unrelated to her claim but failed to disclose any pertinent medical treatment.
