Motion for New Trial
***Parties were ordered to have a court reporter present***
Defendant Christopher Sawicki’s Motion for New Trial is DENIED.
The Court notes that no Opposition was filed by Plaintiff and no Reply was filed by Defendant Sawicki.
Moving Party was in court on November 3, 2025, when Plaintiff answered ready. Moving Party indicated that he needed a continuance due to a recent medical issue. The Court continued the matter. The Court inquired of both sides as to a mutually acceptable date for the continued trial and December 15, 2025 was agreed upon.
On December 15, 2025, Moving Party and
Plaintiff both proceeded to trial. Moving Party made no mention of a continuance request nor that he could not go forward for any reason.
To the contrary, Moving Party fully engaged in the proceedings, giving an opening statement, cross-examining the opposing witness, testifying himself and giving a closing statement.
Moving Party never stated that he could not proceed or needed a continuance of the trial. After the Court ruled against the Moving Party at the conclusion of the trial, the Moving Party waited over two months to file this Motion based on health issues or concerns that were not presented to the Court on December 15, 2025.
Accordingly, the motion is denied. Plaintiff is ordered to submit a Proposed Judgment no later than June 12, 2026.
