Payne & Fears LLP Homebuilder Client Wins Appeal (Greystone Homes, Inc. v. Midtec, Inc., 168 Cal.App.4th 1194 (2008))
Payne & Fears LLP attorneys represented Greystone Homes in an appeal of a judgment against a product manufacturer. In a case of first impression, the court ruled in Greystone Homes, Inc. v. Midtec, Inc., et al. that a homebuilder may pursue claims for equitable indemnity against individual product manufacturers for purely economic losses where the losses would be recoverable by a homeowner under the Right to Repair Act. Greystone was represented on the appeal by Thomas L. Vincent and Erik M. Andersen.
