Ahmed v. Purcell (1:14-cv-07491)
Mar 14, 2016OUTCOME: All claims against client dismissed
Plaintiff filed for a declaratory judgment based Defendant's claims for defamation, invasions of privacy, intentional interference with business relations, and intentional infliction of emotional dist ... ress that were previously explained in a cease and desist letter sent by Arizona counsel. Plaintiff also filed a state claim for intentional infliction of emotional distress. The U.S. Court for the Southern District of New York dismissed Plaintiff's claims based on lack of personal jurisdiction for the declaratory judgment claims and failure to state a claim for intentional infliction of emotion distress, allowing Defendant to bring his claims as a plaintiff in his state of domicile.
