New York Court Denies Plaintiff’s Motion in Case Involving Injured Drywaller Alleging Labor Law Violations Attorneys from the New York law office of Traub Eglin Lieberman Straus LLP recently defeated a plaintiff's motion for summary judgment. In the case, a drywall construction worker in Brooklyn fell from a ladder, later claiming damages against his employer. In court, TELS presented evidence that other safety equipment was present at the Brooklyn construction site that the drywall worker could have been using, but did not. After hearing the evidence, the court dismissed the Plaintiff's motion for summary judgment, ruling that the Plaintiff may have been the sole proximate cause of the accident. The case now moves to the trial stage, but TELS' recent victory demonstrates that trial courts are starting to take a closer look at Labor Law cases after recent decisions by the New York Court of Appeals, and not granting summary judgment for plaintiffs simply because a construction worker fell from a ladder. - 2006-01-31 Friend of PRWeb - 4
