Superior Court Grants Summary Judgment in Favor of Firm Client

The Middlesex County Superior Court has affirmed its recent grant of summary judgment in favor of our New York-based client who was named as the lead defendant in a complex civil case.  The case was brought by a Cambridge-based scientist and several of his startup corporations.  The Plaintiffs had filed a civil complaint against our client in 2020 seeking millions of dollars in damages arising out of an alleged breach of a supposed investment agreement.  In addition to their contract-related claims, the Plaintiffs also asserted additional civil claims for abuse of process and alleged violations of Mass. Gen. L. ch. 93A, the consumer protection statute.  After reviewing our client’s summary judgment motion and the relevant discovery materials, the Superior Court concluded that our client was entitled to judgment on all of the claims asserted by the Plaintiffs.  Daniel Cloherty, one of the Firm’s partners, serves as lead counsel for our client in the case.
