SDNY COURTHOUSE,
July 2 – Reliable Automatic
Sprinkler Company ordered more
than a million dollars of
pipes from Sunbelt Group in
Texas. But when they arrived,
Reliance found them
unreliable: "some of the
imported pipes showed rusty
pitting." So Reliance sued
Texas-based Sunbelt, in New
York State court.
Jump cut to July
2 - the case was removed to
the U.S. District Court for
the Southern District of New
York, where SDNY Judge Gregory
H. Woods held a proceeding.
Inner City Press covered
it.
It emerged that
while the case might be
removed to Federal court, it
might be in Texas.
Judge Woods went
ahead, noting that just he is
often follows the schedules
set in "sibling" Federal
courts, the work he put in
here might be helpful even if
the case is shifted to Texas,
as Sunbelt's lawyer John
Doherty of Thompson &
Knight is pushing.
The case is
Reliable Automatic Sprinkler
Co. Inc. v. Sunbelt Group
L.P., 20-cv-02369 (Woods)
