The state Superior Court has denied Cozen O’Connor’s request to reopen a discontinued suit filed against it by former Wolf Block attorneys in order to get a ruling that the statute of limitations wasn’t tolled.
In an opinion filed Tuesday, a three-judge panel led by President Judge Correale F. Stevens affirmed a ruling by Philadelphia Court of Common Pleas Judge William J. Manfredi denying Cozen O’Connor’s petition to strike the plaintiffs’ praecipe to voluntarily discontinue their suit without prejudice.
