Case Details
Obtained complete dismissal of claims asserted against her client, a commercial trucking insurer. The case arose from an accident in which a truck driver suffered multiple fractures when an 1,800-pound hay bale fell off a trailer which was being loaded. The driver asserted a counterclaim and sought damages in excess of $1.6 million based on allegations the insurer wrongfully denied no-fault and medical benefits, breached its implied duty of good faith, and violated the consumer fraud act. The federal judge rejected the driver’s arguments and ruled in favor of Attorney Novotny’s client when deciding cross-motions for summary judgment.
