Frankston v. Glenn
Plaintiff appeals from a judgment in favor of defendants Patrick K. Glenn, Neal Kaufman, Cipora Kurtzman, Harry Kurtzman, and Arthur Schwartz. The judgment was entered by the trial court after the Court of Appeal (Division Seven of the Second Appellate District) filed an unpublished opinion reversing a money judgment in favor of Frankston. In the current appeal, Court review the trial courts order denying Frankstons motion for a new trial, in which Frankston contended that newly discovered evidence existed which was not considered in the prior appeal and warranted a new trial. Court conclude that Frankstons motion for a new trial, and indeed this appeal, are merely efforts to revisit the issues already determined in the prior appeal. The law of the case doctrine forecloses Frankston from obtaining such reconsideration. Accordingly, Court affirm the judgment entered by the trial court.
