In the Court of Common Pleas of Allegheny County, Pennsylvania, George Cadwallader and Marjorie Cadwallader have filed a lawsuit against Alfred Cappurccini, Cheryl Lynn Cappurccini, and Timothy Cappurccini. The case, docketed under the Civil Division with no specific case ID provided, was initiated on November 15, 2023. The plaintiffs allege negligence and violations of the Pennsylvania Dog Law following an incident involving a dog attack.
On November 15, 2023, George Cadwallader was walking his leashed dog along Country Club Drive when he encountered Timothy Cappurccini walking the defendants' dog. The defendants' dog attacked Cadwallader's dog, causing him to sustain severe injuries while attempting to separate the animals. Represented by attorney Laura E. Balzarini from Balzarini & Watson, the plaintiffs claim that the injuries required surgical repair and resulted in significant physical and emotional distress.
The plaintiffs are seeking damages exceeding $50,000 for medical expenses, pain and suffering, loss of enjoyment of life, and disfigurement. Additionally, Marjorie Cadwallader is claiming loss of consortium due to her husband's injuries.
