No. 1977 MDA 2014

Appeal from the Order Entered October 29, 2014

In the Court of Common Pleas of Luzerne County

Civil Division at No(s): 2011-03374

BEFORE: PANELLA, J., OTT, J., and JENKINS, J.

JUDGMENT ORDER BY OTT, J.: FILED DECEMBER 08, 2015

Marcia Thomas appeals from the order entered October 29, 2014,

granting Appellees’ (William L. Higgs and James A. Brando) amended motion

for summary judgment. We affirm.

J-A34021-15

In its October 29, 2014, order, the court found the following: “[T]here

exists no [conspiracy] claims against Defendants Higgs and Brando since all

parties allegedly involved in Count X[]VI have been DISMISSED with

prejudice and/or by previous Court Order.” Order, 10/29/2014. Upon

review, we agree with the trial court’s assessment and conclude that it did

not err in granting the amended motion for summary judgment.1

Accordingly, we affirm the trial court’s order.

Order affirmed.

Judgment Entered.

Joseph D. Seletyn, Esq.

Prothonotary

Furthermore, we note Thomas’ deficient and obtuse brief, which remained

unclarified after oral argument, does not persuade us otherwise.
