Mottie Pavone and Idlewood Enterprises LLC. v. Charles Corwin and Corwin Place LLC
J-Clawges; PA-Robert D. Berryman, Esquire
* Pavone, acting on behalf of Idlewood, claims she paid $24,800 to Charles Corwin, under the assumption that he was working on behalf of Corwin Place. This sum was an earnest money deposit for eight lots located in Corwin Place. When Corwin Place admitted that utilities would not be installed in a timely manner and that no date of completion could be set, he agreed to refund the deposit plus 8 percent interest per annum. Only $3,500 of this money has been refunded, and Pavone is seeking $21,300 plus pre- and post-judgment interest, as well as court costs.

Mylan Laboratories Inc., Mylan Pharmaceuticals Inc. and UDL Laboratories Inc. v. American Motorists Insurance Co., Continental Insurance Company, Wausau Insurance Company, and Federal Insurance Company, Great American Insurance Company, and Ohio Casualty Insurance Company
J-Stone; PA-Charles C. Crooks
* The plaintiffs claim the defendants breached their contractual obligations to Mylan by refusing to provide Mylan with a prompt defense in the Average Wholesale Price Litigation and the Lorazepam and Clorazepate Antitrust Litigation. Wausau and Federal further breached their contractual duties by failing to reimburse Mylan for payments made in settling the L&C actions. Great American is an excess insurer to Federal, owing its policy limits for reimbursement for Mylan's settlement of the L&C Actions because it breached its duty to pay the settlement. Mylan is seeking reimbursement for fees and costs, including all monies paid in the settlement of these actions.
