Description

Appellants Benson J. Fischer, et al. sued Howard L. Flax, the law firm of Paley, Rothman, Goldstein, Rosenberg & Cooper (hereafter Paley Rothman), and Paley Rothman attorney Alan S. Mark for fraud, negligent misrepresentation, tortious interference, and other alleged misconduct arising from a financing transaction with a third party that did not materialize. The trial judge granted summary judgment to Paley Rothman and Mark. On the rescheduled trial date for Fischers claims against Flax, the judge denied Fischers renewed motion for a continuance and, when Fischer stated through counsel that he would not proceed in the circumstances, dismissed the complaint with prejudice. The case proceeded to a jury trial on the Flax Estates counterclaim for quantum meruit recovery, resulting in an award of $300,000 in damages. The trial judge then heard testimony on the defendants joint counterclaim for bad faith litigation, and awarded them collectively some $930,000 in attorneys fees and costs, together with $40,000 in punitive damages.
