John H. Capps v. OneCare Dental Solutions, LLC

Syllabus

In this dispute between members of a limited liability company, the plaintiff alleged that the defendant breached her fiduciary duty through the unilateral sale of company assets. The trial court referred the matter to a Special Master, who determined the assets were significantly undervalued in the sale and recommended a judgment in favor of the plaintiff. The defendant filed no objections to the Special Master's report. The trial court subsequently adopted the findings and recommendations. On appeal, the defendant challenges the trial court's adoption of the report, asserting that the trial court failed to make independent findings. We affirm.
