NEW ORLEANS (Legal Newsline) - A Louisiana construction company allegedly responsible for severing phone lines of three businesses while on contract with the city of New Orleans lost its appeal in a ruling that distinguished “mental anguish damage” from “inconvenience damage.”
In an opinion issued on Dec. 9, the Louisiana Court of Appeal Fourth Circuit agreed with a lower court that denied Hard Rock Construction its motions for partial summary judgment, and its exception of no right of action.
In December 2017, Hard Rock allegedly severed a main telephone cable that provided telephone and fax services to the law firm of Darleen Jacobs Levy and Darleen M. Jacobs, Home Finders International, Inc., and First Choice Restoration, LLC.
