Randy J. WAGNER, Appellant, v. ORIE & ZIVIC, and John R. Orie, Jr., Appellees.

Superior Court of Pennsylvania.

Filed January 27, 1994.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Mark E. Milsop, Pittsburgh, for appellant.

Christopher Rulis, Pittsburgh, for appellees.

Jeffery B. Albert, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Defense Inst. for amicus.

Before TAMILIA, HUDOCK and CERCONE, JJ.


HUDOCK, Judge.

The sole issue presented in this appeal is whether Rule 238 of the Pennsylvania Rules of Civil Procedure provide for delay damages to be awarded in a legal malpractice action where the underlying claim resulted from improper handling of a personal injury claim. We hold that delay damages are not applicable to such a claim and therefore, affirm the judgment of the lower court.
