ASI Holding Co. v. Royal Beach & Golf Resorts, LLC

ASI Holding Company petitions for review of an order denying a motion to disqualify counsel. ASI sought below to prevent its former counsel from representing the respondent Royal Beach & Golf Resorts, LLC, in a dispute about ASI’s nondisclosure agreement (“NDA”). The trial court denied the motion to disqualify because more than ten years had passed since the counsel had represented ASI in other NDA-related matters and due to “the circumstances” of the NDA. We grant the petition, quash the trial court’s order, and remand for the entry of an order granting ASI’s motion for disqualification.
