Ben Greenfield (Partner-Philadelphia, PA) and Nicholas Noto (Associate-Philadelphia, PA) secured a victory in Philadelphia County for Wilson Elser’s clients, a property management group and a commercial/residential apartment owner after motion practice that lasted an entire calendar year. The plaintiff in this matter alleged injuries she sustained while on a residential property owned and managed by Wilson Elser’s clients. Plaintiff’s counsel filed a vaguely pled and legally impossible complaint in response to which Ben and Nicholas filed preliminary objections that the court sustained. The plaintiff subsequently filed four amended complaints, purported to be more specifically pled each time – but they were not. After the court dismissed each of the four complaints, Ben and Nicholas team filed a Motion to Prevent Further Amended Complaints, which was sustained by the court, and a final order was entered in favor of dismissing our clients with prejudice. The court’s ruling thwarted a demand in the high six figures and affirmed the precedent that pleadings in Philadelphia County must be legally plausible and pled with specificity.
