Roger R. Munn, Esq. and Bradley S. Clark, Esq. of MOODK’s Maryland Office successfully defeated a Plaintiff motion for summary judgment in a wrongful death case stemming from a shooting at a concert over Labor Day Weekend, 2024. Mr. Clark argued the motion, pointing out to the court that several key facts material to the Plaintiffs’ argument were hotly contested and noting that summary judgment is not appropriate in cases where material facts are in dispute. Plaintiffs argued that the decedent was and business invitee and that MOODK’s client therefore owed him a duty to prevent the shooting. Mr. Clark meticulously dissected the characteristics of invitees, licensees, and trespassers, then applied the facts of the case to those criteria to show the court that the decedent was a trespasser. After hearing nearly two hours of argument, the court denied Plaintiffs’ motion on the grounds that MOODK’s attorneys had shown a clear dispute of material fact that precluded summary judgment.
