Facing COVID Related Delays, Becker Glynn Litigators Ask New York Court To Award More Than $10 Million in Damages Without Holding a Hearing

The Firm won a breach of contract case for the Delaware holding company of a Brazilian telecommunications company when the New York court found the defendant liable for failing to make a multimillion-dollar investment. The case was slated for a damages trial.  But when the COVID crisis postponed the trial, and the defendant resisted proceeding remotely, litigation partners Zeb Landsman and Jesse Conan devised a creative legal solution and asked the court to award damages, without a trial, based on certain undisputed facts.  The motion is pending.
