Lowry Obtains Dismissal for Sports Bar in Food Poisoning Case
December 22, 2021
Michael Lowry (Partner-Las Vegas, NV) obtained a dismissal in the Eighth Judicial District Court on behalf of a national sports bar restaurant with a flagship store on the Las Vegas Strip. Two customers alleged they were served drinks spiked with illicit drugs, causing both of them to become impaired, with one asserting he had been hospitalized as a result. The customers filed suit, but did not complete in a timely manner the process to open the discovery period. Michael moved to dismiss, noting the long delay, and the district court dismissed the case over the customers' objection.
