Decision Of Interest

Defendant

McAndrew, Conboy & Prisco Obtain Dismissal for Their Client:
Plaintiff brought suit against a telephone company alleging that while on private premises she was injured when she collided with a telephone booth housing a telephone installed by the defendant. Plaintiff claimed that the placement of the telephone booth in combination with other factors, such as the lighting conditions at the time, constituted a dangerous condition and thus, defendant telephone company was negligent. The Firm achieved a victory for its telephone company client on the grounds that the placement of the telephone booth was not the proximate cause of plaintiff’s injuries.

McAndrew, Conboy & Prisco Obtain Early Dismissal Via Summary Judgment For Property Owner:
Plaintiff alleged that she sustained injury as a result of an elevator malfunction. She sued, among others, the property owner. McAndrew, Conboy & Prisco (“MPC”) obtained the lease and other documentation from the property owner to develop an out of possession landlord defense. Based upon this documentation, MPC moved for summary judgment; the Supreme Court, Bronx County granted the motion.
