The Court sustained State Farm’s motion on the breach of contract claim, and by extension, bad faith and punitive damages, making for a complete victory at the trial court level.
Congratulations to Scott Kiplinger and Ashlyn Smith who were recently recognized for their pro bono services to the Federal Bar Association and to Jake Krattiger who was named Outstanding Board Member for the 2020-2021 year.
GableGotwals obtained summary judgment for a University in the District Court of Oklahoma County, State of Oklahoma. The University was sued for terminating a service contract with a vendor. The University counter-claimed for declaratory relief on grounds that it properly terminated the contract. District Judge Don Andrews held the vendor was in material breach of the parties’ service contract and the University’s termination was justified under the contract’s terms. Further, the Court held that the University did not tortiously interfere with the vendor and that the vendor was not entitled to an equitable accounting.
GableGotwals is pleased to announce Gerard D'Emilio, Scott Kiplinger, and Ashlyn Smith joined the Firm in Oklahoma City.
