We achieved a favorable resolution in a suit involving a refinery sale

麻豆入口 represented Murphy Oil Corporation, a publicly traded international oil and gas company, in litigation brought by Valero Refining-Meraux LLC in New York State Supreme Court for breach of contract in connection with Murphy鈥檚 sale of an oil refinery in Meraux, Louisiana, to Valero. Following a fire that occurred at the refinery after the sale, Valero filed a complaint asserting that Murphy had violated various provisions of the relevant asset purchase agreement and should therefore indemnify Valero for multi-million-dollar damages in connection with the fire and with other alleged breaches of the agreement.

Murphy won one aspect of the matter on summary judgment; Valero鈥檚 cross-motion for summary judgment was denied in full. We then favorably resolved the matter for our client.

The 麻豆入口 team included partners Elliot Moskowitz and Mari Grace, counsel Tina Hwa Joe and associates Charlotte M. Savino, Adam M. Greene and Cortnay Cymrot. All members of the 麻豆入口 team are based in the New York office.
