Macon law firm's dissolution has temporary fix
Court Alerts
The Boston Passante law firm reached a temporary agreement in court today on its dissolution.
The agreement will allow the firm to pay debts and provide income to its partners for the next two months as both sides try to find a permanent solution.
Russell Boston, his wife, Wendy S. Boston, and other partners Lauren L. Benedict and David M. Cusson petitioned Bibb County Superior Court in December to dissolve the firm, and they cited problems with managing partner Brian Passante's completion of his duties.
Passante filed a countersuit earlier this week denying the allegations and blaming Russell Boston for the problems in the firm.
