: Legal Pad | LA$30 million Tae Bo verdict gets its own transformational training on appeal
By Richard Binder
Seyfarth Shaw will get a new trial in a legal malpractice case brought
by the creator of a popular exercise program, who won a $30 million
verdict against the law firm in 2005.
A California state appeals court has thrown out a jury verdict, which found that the Chicago-based law firm committed malpractice when one of its lawyers representing Tae Bo creator Billy Blanks failed to file court papers on time in the right venue.
The Feb. 20 decision from the California Court of Appeal Second District remands the case back to the lower court. It calls for the lower court to change the instructions it gave the jury related to how much Blanks could recover for the firm's alleged wrongdoing.
Blanks' attorney, James R. Rosen, called the decision "a major disappointment," but he said that the overriding conclusion regarding the law firm's malpractice remained intact.
