Markiewicz v. CVS Caremark Corp., PICS Case No. 17-0446 (C.P. Lackawanna Mar. 10, 2017) Nealon, J. (15 pages).
Defendant failed to deliver settlement proceeds within 20 days, but plaintiff was precluded from obtaining sanctions under Rule 229.1 because she explicitly waived that right in the settlement agreement. Her motion for sanctions was denied, but plaintiff was allowed to file a separate petition for breach of the settlement agreement.
