Florian Homm Wins Bid to Vacate Multi-Million California Judgment
First, the California Court found that Pricaspian's lawyers failed to make a valid request to serve Homm by publication and vacated the default judgment. This first ruling meant that Pricaspian had failed to serve the lawsuit within three years of the original filing. As a result, the California Court then dismissed Pricaspian's lawsuit against Homm in its entirety.
Since Mr. Homm was never served, he was unable to defend himself at trial. His co-defendant, Todd Ficeto , went to trial won because the Court found that Pricaspian suffered no damages as a result of Ficeto and Homm's conduct. Since Mr. Homm was unable to participate in the trial, he did not benefit from this ruling.
"This now sets the record straight. Pricaspian did not have a valid claim for damages against me, yet it pursued me to Germany with the default judgment. If I had been properly served, I would have defended against it and won", Homm said. "I am delighted that my effort to overturn this multi-million-dollar judgement succeeded."
