Court Sides With Main Events Against Bostick
Jun 6, 2007 • 12:00 AM ET
The Honorable Harriett Klein, Chancery Division Judge sitting in Newark, New Jersey, has dismissed claims of tortious interference brought by Bobby Bostick Promotions against Main Events.
Judge Klein ruled that the actions alleged by Bostick to have been taken by Main Events with respect to IBF Welterweight Champion Kermit Cintron were “absolutely privileged” and dismissed Bostick’s complaint against Main Events “in its entirety.”
Bostick had claimed in the litigation that Main Events had interfered with Bostick’s alleged contract rights to Cintron by sending a pre-litigation letter and claiming in a complaint filed with the Court that Bostick had interfered with its pre-existing contract rights.
Cintron is, in turn, suing Bostick claiming, among other things, that Bostick breached its obligation to him and did not pay him substantial monies claimed due.
