Fishkin Lucks won a defense verdict today in The United States District Court for the District of Connecticut on behalf of its clients The Home Depot, Inc. and Rust-Oleum Corporation, against Plaintiffs’ claims that Home Depot had negligently retained a former Rust-Oleum subsidiary that negligently installed a 100% solids epoxy cement floor coating. After hearing testimony from ten fact and expert witnesses and closing arguments in which Plaintiffs requested in excess of $1M in damages, the jury deliberated for less than an hour before returning the defense verdict.
