Webb & Carey, APC v. Suppa Trucchi & Henein CA4/1
In a first amended complaint, Webb & Carey, APC (Webb & Carey) brought claims for conversion, money had and received, and breach of fiduciary duty against law firm Suppa Trucchi & Henein, and two of the firm's principals, Teresa Trucchi and Samy Henein (collectively Suppa). All three causes of action were premised on Webb & Carey's contention that Suppa acted wrongfully in accepting $284,672.10 from Suppa's clients, and Webb & Carey's former clients, James and Judy Keenan. Webb & Carey contended that it was wrongful for Suppa to accept the $284,672.10 because Suppa knew, at the time it accepted the payment, that the Keenans' property was subject to Webb & Carey's liens, including two judgment liens, premised upon judgments that Webb & Carey had obtained against the Keenans.
