96-3300 CIVIL TERM
IN RE:
PRETRIAL CONFERENCE
A pretrial conference was held in the
above-captioned case in the chambers of Judge aler on Thursday,
January 2, 1997. Present on behalf of Plaintiffs was Philip S.
Cosentino, Esquire. Present on behalf of Defendant was William
P. Douglas, Esquire.
This is an action in assumpsit on an oral
contract settl~ng a dram shop claim. Defendant has allegedly
failed to comply with one of its obligations under the
settlement - i.e., transfer of a beer license to Plaintiffs.
The license allegedly cannot be transferred to Plaintiffs
because it was committed to someone else; consequently,
Plaintiffs request $50,000.00, the alleged value of the license.
Defendant's defense is that the Plaintiffs have suffered no
damage inasmuch as they had no location for the license, as
required by law.
This will be a nonjury trial of an estimated
duration of one-half day. The trial in this matter was
scheduled by an Order of Court dated December 16, 1996, for
WedneSday, January 8, 1997, at 9:00 a.m. However, counsel have
