Scott Calkins and Anthony Gaeta obtained a defense verdict in a three week multi-million dollar lawsuit against a developer client of CSC&G.

This week Scott Calkins and Anthony Gaeta obtained a defense verdict in a three week multi-million dollar lawsuit against a developer client of CSC&G. The case initially involved construction defect claims and a claim of breach of fiduciary duty brought by the HOA of a downtown San Diego high-rise condominium. The construction defect claims were settled by the project’s general contractor on the eve of trial, leaving the breach of fiduciary claim. In closing arguments, the HOA asked the jury for in excess of $3 million. Scott and Anthony argued the initial reserve funding by their client was appropriate and met all applicable requirements, and hence, there was no liability. The jury returned a defense verdict in favor of our client. We congratulate Scott and Anthony, and everyone who worked to achieve such a favorable result for our client.
