A successful Danbury oral surgeon who sued his former partner in Superior Court won a $3.15 million jury verdict in a case the surgeon described in his complaint as being about his former partner’s “insatiable greed and hunger for power.”

The case that pitted dentist Dorrance Kelly against former colleague Marshall Kurtz, of Danbury Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Associates LLC, alleged breach of contract and violations of the Connecticut Unfair Trade Practices Act.
