BOB SUMNER (Raleigh), LEE POOLE (Charlotte), and JAYE BINGHAM (Raleigh) obtained a defense verdict of no negligence in favor of an international antiques and collectibles show producer, following a two week jury trial. The plaintiff, a vendor, sought over $1 million in damages, after he claimed some of his merchandise was stolen from a show. The defense argued that the security and procedures at the show were in place and operational, and there was no negligence on the part of the defendants.
