Susan Sarandon's lawsuit against WMass contractor dismissed
SPRINGFIELD — Six months before Oscar winner Susan Sarandon was set to go to trial after suing a Western Massachusetts contractor, the case was dismissed in federal court on May 15. Sarandon, under her corporate businesses, went after Western Massachusetts contractor Chad DeGrenier and his wife over a retirement home and compound in a tiny country setting in Vermont where just over 800 people are listed as residents. In court records, Sarandon has said she regarded the $2 million project as the spot where she will live out some of her last years of life in New England. Sarandon, 78, is best known for her Oscar-winning role as a nun in 'Dead Man Walking,' and other roles in 'Bull Durham,' 'Witches of Eastwick' and more. The federal court record only reflected a stipulation of dismissal among the parties, without providing more detail. A trial was scheduled for U.S. District Court in Springfield beginning Oct. 27 before Judge Mark G. Mastroianni but that has been canceled given the recent development, according to the court docket. The most recent and significant development in the case came through a denied motion for Sarandon's camp to seize a $125,000 piece of equipment. 'Plaintiffs argue they are likely to succeed on the merits of their claims of breach of the agreement because it is undisputed that defendants bought the Kubota on behalf of plaintiffs for use at the property, and the agreement provides that, at its termination, defendants will return to plaintiffs any items of property owned by plaintiffs that is in defendants' possession,' U.S. Magistrate Judge Katherine Robertson wrote in a decision last year. Sarandon's original complaint alleged the home had man faults, including buckled walls, an unfinished bedroom and other flaws.
