Farmer v. Ahmed

Dec 10, 2025

OUTCOME: Reversed and Remanded, preserving the plaintiff’s substantive claims and appellate rights.

Successfully obtained reversal of a trial court’s dismissal with prejudice in a third-party automobile negligence action after the trial court summarily dismissed the case when the plaintiff expressed ... an intent to appeal the denial of her attorneys’ motions to withdraw. The Court of Appeals held that the trial court abused its discretion by entering a dismissal with prejudice without advising the plaintiff of the consequences or giving her a meaningful choice to proceed to trial or accept dismissal on specified terms, as required under MCR 2.504(A) and controlling precedent. The Court emphasized that a voluntary dismissal must be knowing and intentional, reversed the dismissal order, and remanded for further proceedings, preserving the plaintiff’s substantive claims and appellate rights.
