HJF v. Bleau, Fox
In an underlying action, the plaintiffs complaint was dismissed as a terminating sanction for the attorneys admittedly repeated failures to respond to discovery and the trial courts orders. The plaintiffs then sued their attorneys for malpractice. The defendant attorneys moved for summary judgment on the ground the plaintiffs had no evidence they had been damaged. Over the plaintiffs opposition, the trial court granted the motion and entered judgment in the attorneys favor. The plaintiffs appeal. Court reverse.
