Dealbreaker’s own Bess Levin writes: Remember Christine
Mancision? To recap, she’s the hedge fund investor relations lady who, back in
October 2009, sued both the Hyatt Morristown and James Graeber, for an incident
that took place on the evening of November 22, 2008, that incident being
Graeber approaching her on the dance floor of his sister’s wedding, grabbing
her arm, taking her for a spin, and then “flinging” her off to the side,
causing Mancision to make a hard crash landing on her wrist, which was “bent
the complete opposite way” when she stood up. Her injuries were so extensive
that they required surgery, a metal plate and three screws (as well as “eight
months of grueling rehabilitation”) and while she blames Graeber first and
foremost, she also believes the Hyatt played a part in overserving the guy when
he was, she says, “visibly intoxicated,” and therefore added “fuel to the fire”
in Graeber’s dancing feet. Unfortunately for Mancision, Judge Robert Sweet has
ruled that while she can go after Graeber for what happened that night, she
cannot collect damages from the hotel, because there is not enough evidence to
prove that the Hyatt served her dancing partner alcohol “when he was in a
visibly intoxicated state” or that he was drunk at all at any point during the
ceremony or reception…..
