: New York Attorney Malpractice BlogLA Sues its City Attorney in Legal Malpractice
By (Andrew Lavoott Bluestone)
This story from LA is about a failed City of LA law suit over an underground gas main construction project. The action was filed late, and dismissed. Now the city attorney is a defendant.
"A jury will decide if the former attorney for the city of Vernon committed legal malpractice and if he should pay more than $1 million in damages.
The city sued Eduardo Olivo in April 2005, alleging that he mishandled various litigation involving the city. One allegation stems from Olivo's decisions involving work done by contractor Kenko in the installation of an underground gas main.
The city alleged the work was defective and that Olivo did not act quickly enough to sue Kenko. When the city did eventually file a complaint against the firm, it was dropped because it was lodged after the statute of limitations had expired. "
