Associate Nichole E. Humes secured a dismissal of a case initiated in 2006 against an insurance broker client, where the plaintiff was seeking in excess of $100,000 for property damage due to a flood that occurred in 2004. Through a Motion for Non Pros, Ms. Humes successfully proved that the client was prejudiced by the plaintiff’s failure to pursue the case over a period of six years.
Note: The results obtained in a particular case are, of course, always heavily dependent on the facts and the law specific to that case.
