Dr. Thomas Furlow
Statement of Facts: Our client, Dr. Thomas Furlow, has been sued by his patient John Brown. Furlow examined Brown and discovered an infected tooth; he advised Brown to return for treatment. Instead, Brown went on vacation. While camping in the desert, Brown's tooth infection worsened, spreading through his body, causing pain and putting his life at risk. Brown sued Furlow on the grounds that Furlow had failed to extract his infected tooth. Furlow was served with the complaint on March 1. Furlow had 20 days to answer the complaint. Furlow had an appointment with his attorney on March 19. On March 18, Furlow's house was robbed and the safe, where he had stored the complaint, was robbed. Furlow went to his mother-in-law, and rescheduled his appointment with his attorney for March 23. On March 23, the court entered a default judgment against Furlow. We have filed a motion to set aside the default judgment.

Memorandum In Brief It is important to note, from the onset, that there are many commercial benefits that our company could reap by expanding internationally. Thus, the expansion into Mexico is not only timely, but also well considered.
