On November 12, 2021, Kentucky’s Court of Appeals issued a decision affirming the grant of summary judgment in favor of FMG client Carey Baldwin. In Leonard Crabtree v. Carey Baldwin, et al., the plaintiff claimed Mr. Baldwin negligently caused a motor vehicle accident in Somerset, Kentucky. Liability for the accident was vigorously disputed.
