CITY AND COUNTY OF SAN FRANCISCO VS. SHIMMICK CONSTRUCTION COMPANY, INC. ET AL

Matter on the Law & Motion / Discovery calendar for Friday, October 10, 2025, Line 5. CROSS DEFENDANT PRECISION ENGINEERING, INC.'s MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT Or In The Alternative For Summary Adjudication By Cross-Defendant Precision Engineering, Inc.

Cross-defendant Precision Engineering, Inc.'s motion for summary judgment is granted. Precision has satisfied its summary judgment burden by showing that the discovery responses of cross-complainant Shimmick Construction Company, Inc. are devoid of facts showing that any conduct of Precision is responsible for the construction defects complained of by plaintiff City and County of San Francisco and Shimmick. Because Shimmick has not submitted any evidence on this motion showing that Precision is responsible for those construction defects, Precision is entitled to summary judgment in its favor.
