Cowen v. M.S. Enterprises, Inc.

Dr. Kimberly H. Cowen sued M.S. Enterprises, Inc.; Roy Robertson; Robertson and Associates, Inc.; and Dr. James Holland, alleging fraud. The case arose from an agreement between M.S. Enterprises and Cowen, pursuant to which Cowen operated a weight loss clinic and sold a weight loss supplement marketed by M.S. Enterprises. The trial court entered a summary judgment in favor of the defendants.

The dispositive issue is whether, in support of their summary judgment motion, the defendants made a prima facie showing that no genuine issue of material fact existed as to Cowen's fraud claim.
