The defendants brought motions for summary judgment to dismiss the plaintiffs' action, the third party actions, and all counterclaims and crossclaims arising from a 2007 motor vehicle accident.
The plaintiffs did not oppose the dismissal of their action.
A third party opposed the dismissal of her counterclaim and crossclaim for contribution and indemnity.
The court held that because the main action was being dismissed, the third party's claims for contribution and indemnity had no basis in law and could not survive.
The motions were granted and all claims were dismissed.
