Another Twist
Exactly a year after the Tenczars won their lawsuit, in December 2022, the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court unanimously decided to reverse the $4.9 million decision.
The judge who presided over the initial six-day trial made what Justice Scott Kafker considers a “clear error,” which led to the conclusion. According to Golf Digest, it’s believed that the error, which had to do with how the 15th hole operated, would have kept the jury from fully comprehending the fundamental issues that the case rests on. The Tenczars had little choice but to proceed with a new trial after years of tension that they believed to be over.
