Mealey's (October 12, 2020, 7:29 AM EDT) -- CENTRAL ISLIP, N.Y. — A New York federal judge on Sept. 29 denied a construction company’s motion to dismiss counterclaims asserted against it by a general contractor and a subcontractor after determining that an arbitration award entered in favor of the construction company and against an insurer did not resolve the counterclaims because the general contractor and subcontractor were not a party to the arbitration (Catlin Syndicate 2003, et al. v. Traditional Air Conditioning Inc., et al., No. 17-2406, E.D. N.Y., 2020 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 178829)....
