12. 26CV01192 Ward, Kerri v. Street, Keely Ann et al
EVENT: Defendants’ Motion to Strike the Allegations and Prayer for Punitive Damages in Plaintiff’s Amended Complaint
Defendants’ Motion to Strike the Allegations and Prayer for Punitive Damages in Plaintiff’s Amended Complaint is GRANTED. Plaintiff has failed to allege facts constituting malice, oppression or fraud. Her allegations that Defendants acted in conscious disregard of her rights is a legal conclusion. Violation of traffic laws and the negligent operation of a motor vehicle do not, in and of itself, provide a legal basis for punitive damages. Because Plaintiff has already attempted to amend the pleading and because the Court cannot conceive of how the pleading can be amended, leave to amend is denied. Defendants shall prepare a form of order within 2 weeks.
