Karina Perez, of the Tampa office, secured a dismissal with prejudice for Plaintiff’s fraud on the court in an automobile negligence case. The case arose from an accident between Plaintiff and our client, who allegedly ran a stop sign and broadsided Plaintiff’s vehicle. Plaintiff was claiming over $230,000, in economic damages. Through her investigation, Karina learned Plaintiff had been involved in two other automobile accidents—which Plaintiff had failed to disclose in discovery. Moreover, Plaintiff failed to disclose that, in connection with one of those other two accidents, she had been arrested for insurance fraud and charged with staging the accident. Karina moved to dismiss this case, arguing Plaintiff’s failure to disclose this information in discovery amounted to fraud on the court. The motion included references to Plaintiff’s confession in the staged accident case. After a hearing, the trial court dismissed Plaintiff’s claims with prejudice.
