The court dismissed the defendant's motions for summary judgment on limitation periods and to stay the action for abuse of process.
The court dismissed two motions brought by the defendant, Y.Y.G.M. SA (“YYGM”): a motion for summary judgment on the basis of expired limitation periods, and a motion to dismiss or stay the action as an abuse of process due to alleged multiplicity of proceedings.
The court found genuine issues requiring trial regarding the applicable limitation periods for negligent misrepresentation and breach of contract claims, including the enforceability of Connecticut choice of law clauses and the factual circumstances of the oral and written agreements.
The court also rejected the abuse of process argument, finding no parallel proceedings against YYGM and no substantial prejudice.
Costs were awarded to the plaintiffs.
