Severino and Wigg Succeed in Motion to Dismiss Slander of Title Case

Mark Severino (Partner-Las Vegas, NV) and Jason Wigg (Associate-Las Vegas, NV) defended a Homeowners’ Association against a lawsuit alleging slander of title for liens placed on the subject property by the HOA as a result of prior lawsuits. Simultaneously with filing the suit, the plaintiff filed a motion for summary judgment. On behalf of the HOA, Mark and Jason filed a joint opposition to the motion for summary judgment and motion to dismiss asserting defects in the pleadings. The Clark County District Court found the pleadings were fatally defective and the motion to dismiss was granted without hearing.
