Kellogg v. Pizza Oven Inc‪.‬

Pizza in one action sued the Architects, alleging that they failed to perform properly architectural services in designing and supervising the construction of a restaurant building to be occupied by Pizza. It was alleged that the cost of the building was not to exceed $62,000.00, but, because of the negligence of the Architects, it cost approximately $100,000.00, with the resultant damage to Pizza of $40,000.00. The companion action involved a mechanics lien foreclosure in which Pizza, the Architects and others were the defendants and in which the Architects filed a cross claim against Pizza for $2,761.80 due for services rendered.
