Corrigan was the sole proprietor of Tastee Burgers, a restaurant. In 2018, Bergdahl allegedly suffered from food poisoning after eating lunch at Tastee Burgers. In 2019, Corrigan died and left everything, including Tastee Burgers, by will to his niece, Layla. Layla then reorganized Tastee Burgers as a limited liability corporation with her best friend Horowitz. In 2020, Bergdahl filed a lawsuit for $500,000 against Tastee Burgers for long term health effects from the food poisoning. Layla and Horowitz have denied responsibility for the injuries and seek a dismissal of the lawsuit. What should the court decide

Answer:

The court should grant a dismissal.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the both Layla and Horowitz had seek a DISMISSAL OF THE LAWSUIT, the court should decide to grant a DISMISSAL reason been that a sole proprietor is a SOLE OWNER of a business which means that SOLE PROPRIETORSHIPS is a one man business or a business own by one person and since the sole owner of the business is dead based on the information given in the scenario the sole proprietorships should as well be TERMINATED.

Therefore THE COURT SHOULD GRANT A DISMISSAL.
