Becklund v. Gabel
Plaintiff Grant W. Becklund appeals an order denying his motion to disqualify Attorney Kenneth Stream and his law firm, Gresham Savage Nolan & Tilden, from representing defendant corporation, Gabel, Cook & Becklund, Inc., and defendants, Craig Cook and William Gabel, individually. Becklund contends Stream and his law firm should be disqualified because Streams representation of the corporation conflicts with his former representation of Becklund. Becklund further contends Stream should be disqualified because Cooks and Gabels interests are adverse to those of the corporation. Court conclude Becklund has failed to establish that the trial court abused its discretion in denying Becklunds motion for disqualification. There was sufficient evidence supporting the courts finding that Stream never represented Becklund, and the interests of the corporation, Cook, and Gabel (defendants) are not in conflict. The disqualification order is affirmed.
