vs.
Evangelical Lutheran Good Samaritan Society, a Foreign Corporation d/b/a/ Manzano Del Sol Good Samaritan Village., Defendant-Cross Appellant, represented Martha G. Brown, Dan Conley and Paul Bauer
Plaintiffs-Appellants seek a reassessment of damages arising out of a claim of unlawful fee increases under the New Mexico Continuing Care Act (CCA). Defendant-Cross Appellant appeals the trial court’s finding for the plaintiff, on the grounds that the CCA’s provision allowing a limit on fees to a “reasonable return on investment” should be found unconstitutional for vagueness.
