The plaintiff son and defendant father were involved in a family business dispute over well drilling companies.
The son brought a motion for partial summary judgment seeking to be appointed as a director and to have the corporate assets evaluated, while the father brought a cross-motion seeking to wind up the company.
The court dismissed both motions, finding that the voluminous conflicting affidavit evidence and credibility issues required a full trial.
However, the court granted an interim order increasing the land rent paid by the corporation to the father based on an unchallenged appraisal.
