Traub Lieberman Partner Ryan Parker and Associate Melina Lowe Win Verdict Finding No Liability in Favor of Condo Owners

Traub Lieberman Partner Ryan Parker and Associate Melina Lowe obtained a defense verdict following a five-day jury trial in Volusia County. The lawsuit was filed against Traub Lieberman’s clients, owners of a condo unit (the”Owners”) located above the Plaintiffs’ unit. The Plaintiffs alleged that the Owners were negligent and breached the Declaration of Condominium for failing to maintain their windows, which the Plaintiffs alleged caused damage to the Plaintiffs’ unit. The Plaintiffs sought over $250,000 for loss of use of their property in addition to other damages. After the Plaintiffs rested their case in chief, Mr. Parker and Ms. Lowe moved for directed verdict on several issues—and a partial directed verdict was granted—which reduced a portion of the Plaintiffs’ damages. After a lengthy trial—which included testimony from more than twelve witnesses—the Jury returned a verdict finding no liability on the part of Traub Lieberman’s clients. As a result of the verdict, the Owners have a basis to recover their attorney’s fees and costs.
