Carman, Callahan & Ingham Obtains Directed Verdict in Labor Law Action

In the case of O’Leary v. S & A Electrical, Judge Nervo of New York County Supreme Court granted a directed verdict in favor of CC&I’s client, following a multi-week trial for damages allegedly sustained by a worker on a construction project who was electrocuted, in which the settlement demand was $10,000,000.  The Plaintiff initiated a claim against CC&I’s client, an electrician, who had obtained a permit to conduct the electrical installation work on the project.  CC&I successfully argued that their client was not liable for Plaintiff’s injuries, and the Judge issued a directed verdict on that issue, dismissing the claims against CC&I’s client.
