Fort Myers Associate Mark Bowers successfully secured a full dismissal against a savvy pro se Plaintiff in small claims court.
In this unique case, the Plaintiff alleged negligence and sought specific performance, arguing that the client was at fault for declaring a vehicle a total loss despite its suitability for resale. The Plaintiff aimed to compel the client to refile legal documents and alter the vehicle’s official status.
Despite the Plaintiff’s use of Chat GPT to bolster their arguments, Mr. Bowers meticulously countered every claim and addressed even the so-called “hallucinations” with precise legal references. His comprehensive defense led directly to the court’s complete dismissal of the case, an outcome that thoroughly satisfied the client.
Notably, the Plaintiff, who traveled all the way from Texas for the trial, accepted the result with good humor. In a moment of levity, the Plaintiff likened the proceedings to the famous Mike Tyson versus Marvis Frazier boxing match in reference to just how quickly the verdict was reached.
