Construction

Construction Defect Claim by Condominium Association vs. Condominium Association of Adjacent Property. Plaintiff’s 18-unit condo project was constructed 14 years before the Defendant’s 10-unit project. Plaintiff asserted Nuisance, Trespass and Negligence claims, seeking injunctive relief and sought $5,000,000 for property damages allegedly caused by the excessive discharge of storm and irrigation water onto Plaintiff’s property. Defendant disputed liability and causation, asserting that Plaintiff’s damages was caused by the failure of a slope on its own property. Defendant also argued that the damages were greatly overstated.
