Following a trial in a construction lien and breach of contract action with a divided result, the court determined the costs and prejudgment interest.
The plaintiff was marginally successful but had its costs significantly reduced due to the divided result, an exaggerated lien claim, and a reasonable offer to settle by the defendant.
The plaintiff was awarded $15,000 in partial indemnity costs, including a portion of its expert's fees.
Prejudgment interest was awarded at 3% per annum from the date the primary invoice was due.
