A Philadelphia jury awarded a nursing home management company more than $1.8 million in a breach of contract, conspiracy and tortious interference case against another management company and its president.
Of the $1.83 million awarded late last month in Reliant Healthcare Management Inc. v. Ashton Hall Inc. , nursing home owner and operator Ashton Hall Inc. was found liable for $829,269 in damages for breach of its contract with Reliant Healthcare Management. Ashton Hall’s president, Stanley Segal, was found liable for $1 million in punitive damages for his role in tortiously interfering with the contract, conspiring with others to interfere with the contract and doing so in a way that was “outrageous, done with bad motive or done with reckless indifference” to Reliant, according to the verdict sheet and docket in the case.
