Jennifer Moran (Partner-Madison, NJ) was successful in a motion for summary judgment in June 2020. The firm’s client owned a home in Ocean County and his son (the plaintiff) fell off an extension ladder while helping his father (the firm’s client) with exterior house painting. The plaintiff suffered a severely broken ankle requiring multiple surgeries and resulting in permanent gait issues. The remaining claims in the case languished during COVID-19 before a trial, which resulted in a “no cause.” The plaintiff appealed the Order granting our client’s Summary Judgment win from 2020 and the no cause for the other defendant. Enter Robert Neff (Of Counsel-Madison, NJ), one of our office’s Appellate gurus, to handle the de novo review! The Appellate Division issued an Order affirming Summary Judgment and the no cause judgment.
