Carpenter Rothans & Dumont

Wrongful Death
Obtained complete defense verdict for large publicly traded water utility in Alameda County wrongful death case. Lawsuit involved alleged and disputed negligent design, specification, procurement, and construction oversight activities by client.
Sex Crimes
In the case of Aarefah Mosavi v. Mt. San Antonio College, et. al., bearing United States District Court Case No. 2:15-cv-04147, handled by attorneys Martin L. Carpenter and Joseph A. Gordon (August 2018), CR&D obtained a defense verdict in a federal jury trial. The case involved a female Muslim student-employee who alleged work place sexual and religious discrimination, and sexual assault by her male co-worker. Congratulations to Mr. Carpenter and Mr. Gordon on a job well done!
Misdemeanors
Kimberly Morosi joined CRD in 2022. Prior to joining the firm, she worked in the Criminal Branch at the Los Angeles City Attorney’s Office where she assisted misdemeanor prosecutors with addressing quality of life and public safety issues throughout the city.
Assault
CRD achieved summary judgment on behalf of Vaughn Next Century Learning Center (a public charter school within the Los Angeles Unified School District) in an action brought by a female student alleging she was bullied as well as sexually and racially harassed by a male peer when they were in elementary school. The plaintiff also alleged that the school discriminated against her based on her race (African American) in failing to discipline the alleged perpetrator and subjecting plaintiff to “strip searches” by law enforcement on campus. The plaintiff asserted causes of action against the school for negligent supervision, assault and battery, and violation of state civil rights. The court found no evidence that Vaughn discriminated against plaintiff or that the school was indifferent to any misconduct by other students. The court also ruled that Vaughn reasonably supervised its students and responded to known complaints appropriately. The school district was represented by Scott Carpenter.
Manslaughter
Fourth Appellate District, Division 3, Case No. G056076 by Steven J. Rothans and Justin Reade Sarno (August 2019); three young girls were struck and killed by a motorist on Halloween night in 2014 at a midblock crosswalk in the City of Santa Ana. Plaintiffs claimed the existence of a “peculiar” condition as a result of inadequate lighting at crosswalk on evening of incident, despite evidence of motorist traveling at approximately 70 miles per hour at the time of the collision. SAPD officers engaged in a three day man hunt for the suspect, who was ultimately apprehended and convicted of vehicular manslaughter. Court affirmed entry of summary judgment in favor of City of Santa Ana, in light of no prior accidents at the location and finding no duty to light the streets under the decision in Antenor. No triable issue of material fact as to the existence of a peculiar condition.

Mr. McNaughton also represents clients before administrative and regulatory agencies (e.g. Cal/OSHA, Mine Safety and Health Administration, Department of Energy, South Coast AQMD, etc.) and provides recommendations to clients with respect to regulatory compliance and litigation avoidance techniques (e.g. Proposition 65, AHERA, lead, mold and asbestos remediation, industry standards and various employment issues.)
Sexual Harassment
Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals Case No. (16-55892) by Justin Reade Sarno (2018); Affirmed grant of summary judgment in lawsuit brought by elementary school student student alleging institutional, district-wide Title IX violations in relation to single incident of peer-on-peer sexual harassment.

Premises Liability
The Court of Appeal, Second District, decision of Arris v. Las Virgenes Unified School District (1998) 64 Cal.App.4th 1112; 75 Cal.Rptr.2d 801 was briefed and successfully argued by Mr. Dumont. It is a leading and often cited case on the issues of primary and secondary assumption of risk in the state of California. Additionally, Mr. Dumont’s appellate skills were demonstrated in the amicus brief to the California Supreme Court in Day v. City of Fontana (2001) 25 Cal.4th 268; 105 Cal.Rptr.2d 457, where the court held that Proposition 213 (Civil Code, Section 3333.4) applies in premises liability lawsuits against public entities and precludes the recovery of noneconomic damages by uninsured drivers.

McNaughton has over 35 years of experience and has successfully tried to verdict a wide variety of bodily injury and property damage jury trials throughout California and a living mesothelioma case in Oregon.
