On Sept. 22, the Superior Court agreed with BLF attorneys A. Richard Feldman and Lisa Barton, and reversed a sizeable judgment against their client, adopting section 772(a) of the Restatement (Second) of Torts, which precludes tortious interference liability for true statements. The ruling brought Pennsylvania’s law into line with the case law of the great majority of states that have considered the issue.
