A Good Win in 2016
Posted on September 24, 2016 in Arizona Law Regarding Business DisputesIn August of 2016, 22 days before a jury trial I had litigated for 3 years, I knocked the heck out of a corporate entity I deemed an ‘alleged sham’ who had contractually interfered with our client and their prospective business opportunities. We focused on Antwerp Diamond Exch. of Am., Inc. v. Better Bus. Bureau of Maricopa Cty., Inc., 130 Ariz. 523, 527-29, 637 P.2d 733, 737-39 (1981). We said, a conditional privilege is abused when the publisher: (a) knows the matter to be false; or (b) acts in reckless disregard of its truth or falsity. Restatement (Second) of Torts §600. Currier v. W. Newspapers, Inc., 175 Ariz. 290, 293-94, 855 P.2d 1351, 1354-55 (1993). Our settlement is 110% confidential & the file is sealed, but I can say, our client – eight figure earners- got settlement money in a big way.
Any smart/good business group would rather settle than litigate, but once in a while, the little guy needs to stand up. We love these cases and we have a 29 year history of good results in David v. Goliath cases.
