David R. Ruiz and Lynn L. Carpenter Prevail Against Wrongful Death Claim

General Counsel David R. Ruiz and Los Angeles Partner Lynn L. Carpenter recently prevailed against a claim of wrongful death in the custody of our clients, a public entity. Mr. Ruiz and Ms. Carpenter successfully argued that statutory immunity applied as to all of the plaintiff’s negligence claims, and the Court agreed, granting our Motion for Summary Judgment and adopting the tentative ruling in full.
