In Re James R. Caputo

Question 1: How is the Monroe County, NY Supreme Court legally permitted to: 1) undermine its own citation of controlling case law; 2) contradict its own factual determinations; 3) cite zero supporting evidence; and 4) completely ignore the American Bar Association standards, the extensive opposing legal argument and the material proof from Plaintiff, when reaching the unsubstantiated legal conclusion that an attorney-client relationship did not exist between Petitioner and the Respondents on the date of negligence in this legal malpractice lawsuit? Question 2: How is the New York Appellate Division: Fourth Department permitted to remain silent on the issue of attorney-client relationship in this legal malpractice lawsuit after: 1) the trial court manifestly evaded the evidence presented by Petitioner which unmistakably established this attorney-client relationship (and duty) on the date of negligence; and 2) the Appellate Division was specifically petitioned to answer what the lower court ignored after presenting five independently incontestable proofs confirming the existence of this pivotal fact?
