Neinstein v. Mitchell Silberberg & Knupp
Appellants Jack Neinstein and Edward Landry, cotrustees of the Marcia Israel Living Trust and special representatives of the Estate of Marcia Israel and the Marcia and Lawrence Israel Charitable Foundation, Inc., also known as the Marcia Israel Foundation (Foundation) (appellants), appeal from an order of the trial court sustaining the demurrer of Mitchell, Silberberg & Knupp LLP and Stanley Arenberg (respondents) without leave to amend and dismissing appellants legal malpractice action in its entirety on the ground that the action was time-barred under Code of Civil Procedure section 340.6 (section 340.6).
In this appeal, Court address a single, narrow issue: whether, on the face of the complaint, appellants legal malpractice claim is barred under section 340.6. Because we find that the allegations of the complaint do not permit a definitive determination of the date that appellants suffered actual injury under section 340.6, subdivision (a)(1), Court reverse and remand for further proceedings.
