Description
Ski Acres Development Company, as owner, brought this action against Douglas G. Gorman, Inc., and United Masonry, Inc., contractors, and Eugene G. Mushkin and Harvey Dodd & Associates, a design team, to recover for damages to its building which occurred when an overburden of snow crushed a substantial portion of it. The cause was tried before the court and a jury. When all of the evidence was in, but before the jury was instructed, the design team was dismissed. Thereafter, the jury returned a verdict in favor of Ski Acres and against the contractors; Gorman in the amount of $100,686.72 and United Masonry in the amount of $35,685.01. The contractors moved for a reduction of the verdict by the amount paid to Ski Acres by the design team to secure its dismissal, and by the amount still owing by Ski Acres on the building contract. The motion was granted and judgment entered accordingly. Ski Acres appeals, assigning as error the two reductions and the refusal of the trial court to allow interest.
