Pilevsky v. Morgans Hotel Group Management

How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• quashing order denying stay, where previously filed New York lawsuit would resolve most of the issues in the action
• no requirement of identity of parties between two actions where parties were substantially similar and resolution of issues in first-filed action would resolve many of issues in second-filed action
• failure to join certain investors and officers of defendant company in prior pending action did not favor denial of a motion to stay, rather, entry of a stay furthered Florida policy discouraging forum shopping
• “Although only PSB is named as a plaintiff in the New York action, the only additional parties named as defendants in the Florida action are PSB’s individual investors and officers.”
