CMM has secured a meaningful win for the Town of Riverhead.
In this personal injury case, the Plaintiff claimed that the Town was liable for injuries sustained by a minor at a public skateboard park. CMM successfully moved for summary judgment (essentially, asking the Court to find that there are no facts in dispute and to rule in our favor), arguing that the Plaintiff was solely responsible for the accident.
The team, led by Scott Middleton with significant contributions from Joseph Townsend, drafted the winning motion, which resulted in a dismissal of all claims.
Had the Plaintiffs been able to proceed with their case, it would have subjected the Town to significant exposure due to the Plaintiff’s injuries.
