Axinn has scored another appellate victory for insurance broker Brown & Brown. In a unanimous decision released on November 15, 2011, the Connecticut Appellate Court affirmed the Superior Court's rulings granting summary judgment to Brown & Brown on all remaining claims and rejecting the plaintiff's post judgment effort to amend its complaint. John Tanski argued the appeal for Brown & Brown, joined on the briefs by Mark Alexander.

This victory follows a 2010 Axinn win for Brown and Brown in which the Connecticut Supreme Court unanimously held that the Connecticut Attorney General cannot publicly disclose documents that he has obtained by subpoena during an antitrust investigation.
