Filing # 160324098 E-Filed 10/31/2022 04:06:16 PM IN THE CIRCUIT COURT OF THE NINTH JUDICIAL CIRCUIT, IN AND FOR OSCEOLA COUNTY, FLORIDA FIRST 2 AID EMS, INC., a Florida corporation, Case No.: 2022-CA-002033 Plaintiff, v. CHRISTOPHER LUCZYWO, Defendant. ____________________________________/ DEFENDANT’S, CHRISTOPHER LUCZYWO, AMENDED MOTION FOR SUMMARY FINAL JUDGMENT Defendant, CHRISTOPHER LUCZYWO, (“LUCZYWO”), by and through his undersigned counsel and pursuant to Florida Rule of Civil Procedure 1.510 hereby files this Amended Motion for Summary Final Judgment. As will be set forth below, LUCZYWO is entitled to Summary Final Judgment as LUCZYWO, together with his wife, are the sole shareholders and directors of this closely held Corporation. Accordingly, the Corporation, by and through its CEO, Sanjay Parekh and John Kochy, the alleged President, cannot set forth a claim for conversion, tortious interference, breach of duty of royalty, breach of fiduciary duty and violation of Florida’s Uniform Trade Secrets Act and civil theft. On or about February 21, 2018, FIRST 2 AID EMS, INC. was formed for the purpose of operating a Florida for profit corporation. A copy of the Electronic Articles of Incorporation is attached hereto as Exhibit “A.” The Corporation was formed by Brandy Luczywo. The officers and directors of the Corporation were Brandy Luczywo and CHRISTOPHER LUCZYWO. See Exhibit “A” previously attached hereto. The Corporation’s shares were apportioned as fifty-one percent (51%) to Brandy Luczywo and 1 forty-nine percent (49%) to CHRISTOPHER LUCZYWO. See the Affidavits of Brandy Luczywo and CHRISTOPHER LUCZYWO attached hereto as Exhibits “B” and “C.” The Company operated continuously from February 21, 2018 until July 11, 2022, including the timely filing of annual reports from 2019 through 2022. See the Affidavits of Brandy Luczywo and CHRISTOPHER LUCZYWO previously attached here to as Exhibits “B” and “C.” FIRST 2 AID EMS, INC. was formed to provide medical transport between hospital and nursing home facilities. In July 2020, as FIRST 2 AID EMS, INC. began to expand, it hired Sanjay Parekh as Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Parekh was not given stock options, nor was Mr. Parekh provided with stock certificates for FIRST 2 AID EMS, INC. Between November 2020 and June 8, 2022, Mr. Parekh operated along side the President, Brandy Luczywo, and Vice President, LUCZYWO. See Affidavit of Christopher Luczywo as Exhibit “C.” On or about June 8, 2022, Mr. Parekh dismissed LUCZYWO as Chief Operating Officer. On or about July 11, 2022, individuals fraudulently submitted Articles of Amendment to Articles of Incorporation for FIRST 2 AID EMS, INC., removing LUCZYWO, as Vice President and Brandy Luczywo as President. A copy of the Amendment to Articles of Incorporation are attached here to Exhibit “D.” In their place, Sanjay Parekh was designated as a Director and Vice President. At the time of filing the Amendment to Articles of Incorporation the only directors for FIRST 2 AID EMS, INC. were Brandy Luczywo and LUCZYWO. See Exhibit “A” previously attached here. 2 John Kochy is identified on the Amended Articles of Incorporation. Mr. Kochy was an individual who assisted in financing to FIRST 2 AID EMS, INC. and was not employed by FIRST 2 AID EMS, INC. Further, Brandy Luczywo and LUCZYWO had not sold, transferred, gifted, pledged or otherwise provided to John Kochy any shares of FIRST 2 AID EMS, INC. Finally, Brady Luczywo and LUCZYWO, as Directors, did not vote to place John Kochy on the Board. See Affidavits of Brandy Luczywo and CHRISTOPHER LUCZYWO previously attached hereto as Exhibits “B” and “C.” STANDARD OF REVIEW Summary judgment is proper against a party who fails to make a showing sufficient to establish the existence of an element essential to that party’s case for which that party bears the burden of proof at trial. Celotex Corporation v. Catrett, 106 Ct. 2548 (1986).1 Summary judgment is appropriate when the Court is satisfied and there is no genuine issue of material fact and the movant is entitled to summary judgment as a matter of law. Mohr v. Jotcar, Inc., 2021 W.L. 914168 (M.D. Fla. March 10, 2021). An issue is “genuine” if the record taken as whole could not lead a rational trier of fact to find for the non-moving party. Baby Buddies, Inc. v. Toys “R” Us, 611 F.3d 1308 (11th Cir. 2010). On summary judgment, the court is asked is to decide whether the evidence presents a disagreement sufficient to require the submission to a jury, or whether it is so one sided that one party must prevail as a matter of law. Hickson Corp. v. Northern Crossarm Company, Inc., 357 F.3d 1256, 1260, (11th Cir. 2004). 1 On May 1, 2021, the Florida Supreme Court adopted the Federal Court standard for summary judgments. In Re: Amendments to Florida Civil Procedure 1.510, 309 So. 3d 192 (Dec. 31, 2020)(stating that effective May 1, 2021 the summary judgment standard articulated by the United States Supreme Court in Celotex Corporation v. Catrett, 477 U.S. 317 (1986) shall be the standard for Florida). 3 ARGUMENT I. LUCZYWO Is Entitled To Summary Judgment On Count I For Conversion As The Property Subject To The Conversion Count Was Owned By LUCZYWO. FIRST 2 AID EMS, INC. cannot assert a conversion claim against LUCZYWO as LUCZYWO and Brandy Luczywo held one hundred percent (100%) stock ownership in FIRST 2 AID EMS, INC. and LUCZYWO is the Vice President of FIRST 2 AID EMS, INC. Conversion is an act of dominion and control over another’s property inconsistent with the other’s ownership within. Goodwin v. Alexatos, 584 So.2d 1007 (Fla. 5th 1991); Edwards v. Landsman, 51 So.3d 1208 (Fla. 4th DCA 2011); Taubenfeld v. Lasko, 324 So.3d 529 (Fla. 4th DCA 2021). In order to support a conversion claim, one must prove ownership of the subject property. The essence of the action for conversion is the wrongful deprivation of property ending ownership. Taubenfeld v. Lasko, 324 So.3d 529 (Fla. 4th DCA 2021). In this case, there is no genuine issue of material fact that FIRST 2 AID EMS, INC. did not own those items identified in the Complaint or otherwise were wrongfully deprived of the property. LUCZYWO has attested that he is a forty-nine percent (49%) shareholder of FIRST 2 AID EMS, INC. Brandy Luczywo, his spouse, has attested that she is a fifty- one percent (51%) shareholder of FIRST 2 AID EMS, INC. Accordingly, Brandy Luczywo and LUCZYWO comprise one hundred percent (100%) of the shares of FIRST 2 AID EMS, INC. Additionally, Brandy Luczywo attested that she was the President of FIRST 2 AID EMS, INC. Likewise, LUCZYWO was the Vice President of FIRST 2 AID EMS, INC. from the time of formation to the present. Moreover, each has attested they were the sole board of directors. Exhibit “A” demonstrates they were the only officers and directors through July 2022. As sole shareholders and directors, each had the right to 4 control the property of Company. Central to any conversion claim is the ability for the party to demonstrate dominion or authority over property adverse to the rights of the true owner. FIRST 2 AID EMS, INC. cannot demonstrate as such based on the summary judgment evidence. In short, as a practical matter if the LUCZUWOS’ are one hundred percent (100%) stockholders, are the only directors and the only officers, then how can there be a conversion of property? In conclusion, Defendant, CHRISTOPHER LUCZYWO, is entitled to summary final judgment on Count I for conversion. II. LUCZYWO Is Entitled To Summary Final Judgment On Count II For Tortious Interference As He Not A Third-Party Or Stranger To The Business Relationship. LUCZYWO is entitled to summary judgment on Count II for tortious interference as LUCZYWO and Brandy LUCZYWO are one hundred percent (100%) shareholders of FIRST 2 AID EMS, INC. Moreover, at all times material LUCZYWO was the Vice President of FIRST 2 AID EMS, INC., as well as the Chief Operating Officer. At no time did the Board of Directors or shareholders meet to remove LUCZYWO as Vice President of FIRST 2 AID EMS, INC. See Affidavits of Brandy Luczywo and CHRISTOPHER LUCZYWO previously attached here to as Exhibits “B” and “C.” The elements of a tortious interference with business relationship are 1) the existence of a business relationship; 2) knowledge of the relationship on the part of the defendant; 3) an intentional and unjustified interference with the relationship by the defendant; and 4) damage to the plaintiff as the result of the breach of the relationship. Ethan Allen, Inc. v. Georgetown Manor, Inc.; 647 So.2d 812 (Fla. 1994). For the 5 interference to be unjustified, the interfering defendant must be a third-party or a stranger to the business. Palm Beach County Healthcare v. Professional Medical Education, 13 So.3d 1090 (Fla. 4th DCA 2009). A cause of action for tortious interference does not lie against one who, himself is a party to the business relationship. Bridge Financial, Inc. v. J. Fischer & Associates, Inc., 310 So.3d 45 (Fla. 4th DCA 2020). A person cannot interfere in a business relationship with himself. Id. A party cannot be held liable for tortious interference when it has a supervisory interest in how the relationship is conducted or a potential financial interest in how a contract is performed. Id. In Bridge Financial, Inc. v. J. Fischer & Associates, Inc., 310 So.3d 45 (Fla. 4th DCA 2020), appellants were terminated by J. Fischer & Associates, Inc. (“JFA”) after they copied JFA’s entire client list and formed their own competing business, Bridge Financial, Inc. After termination, appellants solicited JFA’s clients allegedly causing a decrease in JFA’s revenue. JFA brought suit for tortious interference with contract. Bridge Financial, Inc. v. J. Fischer & Associates, Inc., 310 So.3d 45 (Fla. 4th DCA 2020). JFA appealed a judgment on the pleadings entered by the trial court on a count for tortious interference with business relationship because although appellants were a five percent (5%) minority shareholder of JFA, they were not personally a party to the relationships between JFA and its customers. The appellate court held that appellants, as a shareholder in JFA, with a five percent (5%) interest in the company, could not interfere in a business relationship with themselves. Id. The court cited with approval ULQ, LLC v. Meder, 293 G.A. App. 176, 666 SE 2d 713 (2008)(holding no claim against a former officer who still had a ten percent (10%) ownership interest in the company because the former officer was not a stranger to the business or contractual relationships). 6 Based on the foregoing, LUCZYWO cannot be a third-party interfering in FIRST 2 AID EMS, INC.’s alleged business or contractual relationships with customers, since he is an officer, shareholder and director of FIRST 2 AID EMS, INC. and not a stranger. III. LUCZYWO Is Entitled To Summary Final Judgment On Count III and IV For Breach Of Fiduciary Duty And Breach of Duty of Loyalty. The elements of a claim for fiduciary duty are the existence of a fiduciary duty; breach of said duty; and proximate cause of plaintiff’s damages. Gracey v. Eaker, 837 So.2d 348 (Fla. 2002). There are two fundamental fiduciary duties: the duty of care and the duty of loyalty. The duty of care is a requirement to use that amount of care in which ordinary careful and prudent men in similar circumstances and consider all material information reasonably available in making business decisions. Taubenfeld v. Lasko, 324 So.3d 529 (Fla. 4th DCA 2021). The duty of loyalty mandates that the best interest of the corporation and shareholders take precedence over any interest possessed by a director, officer or controlling shareholder and not shared by the stockholders generally. Id. The duty of good faith is actually a subsidiary element of the duty of loyalty. Id. Here, FIRST 2 AID EMS, INC. has alleged that LUCZYWO violated the fiduciary duty of loyalty by converting certain equipment (Paragraph 64 of Plaintiff’s Verified Complaint); solicited FIRST 2 AID EMS, INC.’s employees in anticipation of future competition against the Corporation while he was an officer (Paragraph 63 of Plaintiff’s Verified Complaint); and allegedly improperly collected and retained deposits, progress payments and/or final payments from customers. (Paragraph 65 of Plaintiff’s Verified Complaint). FIRST 2 AID EMS, INC. subsequently alleges that LUCZYWO violated a general fiduciary duty by entering into agreements on behalf of the Company that were intended to damage the Company. (Paragraph 70 of Plaintiff’s Complaint). 7 However, as Brandy Luczywo and LUCZYWO are one hundred percent (100%) shareholders of this closely held Corporation, and the only directors and officers of FIRST 2 AID EMS, INC., LUCZYWO would in practice owe a fiduciary duty to himself. LUCZYWO would not owe a fiduciary duty to the employees of the Corporation. The duty of loyalty mandates that the best interest of the shareholders takes precedent over any interest possessed by a director, officer or controlling shareholder, and not shared by the stockholders generally. However, Brandy Luczywo and LUCZYWO are the stockholders generally. They are the only stockholders. Therefore, FIRST 2 AID EMS, INC. is alleging that LUCZYWO breached a fiduciary duty to himself. Based on the foregoing, LUCZYWO is entitled to summary judgment on the breach of fiduciary duty claims. IV. LUCZYWO Is Entitled To Summary Judgment On Count V For Violation Of Florida Uniform Trade Secrets Act. In order to prevail on a claim for misappropriation of trade secrets under Florida law, a plaintiff must demonstrate that the defendants misappropriated secret information from the plaintiff of which the plaintiff made reasonable efforts to maintain the secrecy. Furmanite America, Inc. v. T.D. Williamson, Inc., 506 F. Supp 2d 1134 (N.D. Fla. April 11, 2007). LUCZYWO has attested he was forty-nine percent (49%) stockholder of the Company, Vice President, and one of two directors of FIRST 2 AID EMS, INC. Further, LUCZYWO never transferred, assigned, or sold any stock of FIRST 2 AID EMS, INC. to John Kochy and Sanjay Parekh. Moreover, as of today, LUCZYWO is still the lawful director and officer of FIRST 2 AID EMS, INC. 8 Brandy Luczywo has attested she is fifty-one percent (51%) shareholder of FIRST 2 AID EMS, INC. and one of two directors since the Company’s formation. Brandy Luczywo attested she is the lawful President and that at no time did she transfer, assign, or sell any stock shares to John Kochy and Sanjay Parekh. Moreover, each of these individuals have attested that no board meetings were held which removed either of them as an officer of the Company. Based on the foregoing, LUCZYWO could not have misappropriated a trade secret allegedly belonging to FIRST 2 AID EMS, INC. as LUCZYWO and Brandy Luczywo are one hundred percent (100%) stockholders of FIRST 2 AID EMS, INC. and the only lawful officers and directors of FIRST 2 AID EMS, INC. Further, their Affidavits make clear that any alleged trade secret, which LUCZYWO contests are actually trade secrets, were owned by LUCZYWO, individually. Based on the foregoing, LUCZYWO is entitled to summary final judgment on Count V for violation of Florida’s Uniform Trade Secrets Act. V. LUCZYWO Is Entitled To Summary Judgment On Count VI For Civil Theft. LUCZYWO is entitled to summary judgment on Count VI for civil theft as Plaintiff cannot demonstrate criminal intent. A person commits theft if he or she knowingly obtains or uses, or endeavors to obtain or to use, the property of another with intent to, either temporarily or permanently: a) Deprive the other person the right to the property or to benefit from the property; b) Appropriate the property to his/her own use or to the use of any person not entitled to the use of the property. Fla. Stat. §812.014 (2002). In order to establish civil theft, the party must prove the statutory elements of theft, as well as criminal intent. Gersh v. Cofman, 9 769 So.2d 407 (Fla. 4th DCA 2000). Criminal intent is defined in §812.014 as the intent to temporarily or permanently deprive or appropriate the property of another. Counter Manors v. Master Antenna Systems, Inc., 534 So.2d 1187(Fla. 4th 1988). In this case, Plaintiff cannot demonstrate criminal intent based on the summary judgment evidence. LUCZYWO attested that at the time of the alleged termination he was an officer and director of FIRST 2 AID EMS, INC. (Paragraph 3 and 4 of Christopher Luczywo’s Affidavit). LUCZYWO further attested that he held forty-nine percent (49%) of the shares of FIRST 2 AID EMS, INC. LUCZYWO testified that he did not sell, transfer or pledge the shares. LUCZYWO attested that at no time prior to his alleged termination was there a meeting of the shareholders to remove any officer or director of the Company. (Paragraph 16 of Christopher Luczywo’s Affidavit). Further, the shareholders of FIRST 2 AID EMS, INC. did not authorize the removal of LUCZWYO as a director or officer of FIRST 2 AID EMS, INC. (Paragraph 17 of Christopher Luczywo’s Affidavit). Based on the foregoing, LUCZYWO cannot be terminated from FIRST 2 AID EMS, INC. nor can he possess the criminal intent to deprive FIRST 2 AID EMS, INC. of property as LUCZYWO had legal authority to possess such property. Based on the foregoing, LUCZYWO is entitled to summary judgment on Count VI for civil theft. CONCLUSION In conclusion, Defendant, CHRISTOPHER LUCZYWO, would hereby move this Court for entry of Summary Final Judgment on Plaintiff’s, FIRST 2 AID EMS, INC., Complaint. 10 LUCZYWO could not have converted FIRST 2 AID EMS, INC.’s property based on his ownership and rightful possession. Additionally, LUCZYWO could not have breached a fiduciary duty as the claims being brought are through the Company but not per the approval and content of the Board of Directors or the shareholders. Instead, an employee seeks to act on behalf of the Company. Count II for tortious interference should be similarly dismissed as CHRISTOPHER LUCZYWO is not a third-party interfering with FIRST 2 AID EMS, INC.’s contracts or business relationships. LUCZYWO was, and is, one of two directors, and the Vice President of FIRST 2 AID EMS, INC. Therefore, LUCZYWO could not tortiously interfere with FIRST 2 AID EMS, INC. LUCZYWO is entitled to summary judgment on the FUTSA claim as LUCZYWO owned the alleged trade secrets. Finally, LUCZYWO is entitled to summary judgment on the civil theft count as Plaintiff cannot demonstrate the requisite criminal intent. WHEREFORE, for all the foregoing reasons, Defendant, CHRISTOPHER LUCZYWO, would hereby move this Court for entry of Order of Summary Final Judgment of Plaintiff’s, FIRST 2 AID EMS, INC., Complaint, together with such other and further relief as this Court may deem just and proper.
