SBA Monarch v. Hirakis, April 9, 2019
After two years of litigation, the defendant filed a third party complaint alleging that Rapaport Law Firm’s client, a telecommunications carrier, was responsible for damaging the defendant’s commercial building. The Queens County Supreme Court dismissed the defendant’s third party complaint. In its decision, the Court held that the defendant failed to follow New York pleading requirements and further ruled that the complaint did not make valid claims for indemnification.
