Delighted to share another appellate victory for our friends at Krentsel Guzman! This one confirms the need to provide "a detailed and credible explanation" of the law office's failure in support of a motion to vacate one's default.

Kudos to Ross Friscia for his excellent work on this appeal!

Pleased to share this most recent reversal won for our friends at Dell & Dean! This one highlights that a plaintiff can win summary judgment by leveraging a VTL violation and a defendant's admission to not having seen Plaintiff's vehicle prior to the accident. Easy peasy!

We're honored to be part of the winning team at Dell & Dean!

Delighted to share this most recent win for our friends at Gruenberg Kelly Della! This one stands as another great example of how a defendant's summary judgment gambit β€” this one asserting the "open and obvious" defense β€” can be defeated by challenging the movant's supporting evidence. As any coach will tell you, the best defense is often a good offense!

Kudos to Ross Friscia for his winning presentation!

REVERSAL!

Grateful to share this most recent reversal and reinstatement won for our friends at Dell & Dean! This one is truly bookmark-worthy, as it reflects a rare judicial application of the revival provision contained in "Lavern's Law," the 2018 legislation by which New York first instituted a discovery rule in negligent failure-to-diagnose cancer cases.

Kudos to the Horn Appellate Group team for this winning presentation!

Sound the Victory Horn!

Happy to share our most recent reversal and reinstatement for our friends at Krentsel Guzman!

Discovery disputes happen and, contrary to popular belief, the appellate courts will step in when needed.

The key to a successful discovery appeal, such as this one, is to present the case history in an easily digestible narrative that is focused on the relatively limited scope of the statutes authorizing dismissal.

Kudos to the team at Horn Appellate Group for its persuasive presentation!

Appellate Intelligence Winning In Da Club!

Delighted to share our most recent victory on behalf of our good friends at Joseph & Norinsberg! This one vanquished rapper, Curtis Jackson, a/k/a 50 Cent, who sought to enforce a β€œLife Rights Agreement” against a former romantic partner via default judgment.

Kudos to Christen Giannaros for her excellent work on this appeal and for wisely refraining from a mic drop at oral argument!

REVERSAL!

Delighted to share this most recent reversal and reinstatement won for our friends at Dell & Dean!

This one is bookmark-worthy because it successfully challenged the moving defendant's prima facie showing in connection with their claimed entitlement to the NYC Administrative Code's exception for "owner occupied" residential real property (see, Administrative Code Β§ 7-210[b]).

Kudos to Ross Friscia for his work on this winning appellate presentation!
