A judge has refused to throw out key claims in a lawsuit accusing Obermayer Rebmann Maxwell & Hippel of cheating on associate bonuses, though the case was whittled down.
The Philadelphia Court of Common Pleas, in a Monday order, granted Obermayer Rebmann’s motion for judgment on the pleadings with regard to former associate Ryan Leonard’s claims of breach of fiduciary duty, fraudulent misrepresentation and fraudulent inducement. It denied the motion with regard to Leonard’s claims of fraudulent conversion and misappropriation.
