A White and Williams attorney has filed an appeal of nearly $35,000 in sanctions leveled against him by a Northampton County Court of Common Pleas judge.
Judge Paula A. Roscioli sanctioned medical malpractice attorney Daniel J. Ferhat $34,646 for backing out of a scheduled arbitration and attempting to reinsert into the arbitration agreement terms that had previously been addressed, according to an opinion the judge issued in January. The sum included reimbursement for travel and arbitration expenses that plaintiffs in the underlying medical malpractice case and their counsel had incurred.
