Garage-collapse suit defendants seek venue change By MADELAINE VITALE
Robert J. Mongeluzzi, a Philadelphia attorney representing the widows of two of the workers, said he would fight a change of venue. He said he filed the claims in Superior Court in Philadelphia because of fear that with casinos employing so many people in the Atlantic City area, it could be impossible to get an unbiased jury pool in the resort.
In a wrongful-death lawsuit filed Nov. 26, the widows of collapse victims James P. Bigelow and Michael M. Wittland blamed the casino, Keating and concrete subcontractor Fabi Construction Inc., located in Egg Harbor Township, for the accident, claiming they switched to a cheaper and quicker construction plan despite warnings from workers who feared the garage ceilings did not have enough support.------------------------------------------- posted 9:03 AM :: reference link ::
