The plaintiff claimed over $80,000 in business losses, alleging the defendant severed its telephone lines while filling a trench with concrete in a shared commercial building.
The court completely rejected the evidence of the plaintiff's owner due to numerous inconsistencies, suspect documentation, and a demonstrated pattern of guessing.
The court found no evidence that the plaintiff's telephone lines ran under the defendant's unit or that the defendant caused the disruption.
The action was dismissed.
