John Cosgrove Successfully Obtained Decision Dismissing Plaintiff’s Complaint Against the Firm’s Retail Client

December 15, 2021

John Cosgrove, an associate in the firm’s General, Tort, and Insurance Litigation Department, successfully obtained a decision dismissing the plaintiff’s complaint against the firm’s retail client.  Upon receipt of an alleged medical malpractice action, Cullen & Dykman filed a pre-answer motion to dismiss the plaintiff’s complaint for failure to state a cause of action or, in the alternative, directing the plaintiff to provide a more definitive statement regarding his allegations.  The Court agreed with the firm’s position, finding that the plaintiff’s factual allegations were insufficient to establish a claim against the firm’s retail client.  The Court granted our motion and ordered the case be dismissed.
