The plaintiff brought a motion to sever the defendants' third-party action from her main action for the recovery of a loan.
The main action was a straightforward debt claim, while the third-party action involved complex allegations of misappropriation, breach of fiduciary duty, and defamation against former employees.
The court granted the motion, finding that keeping the actions together would cause unnecessary delay and prejudice to the plaintiff, and that severance would not cause injustice to the defendants or third parties.
