A.F.Evans Co., Inc. v. Doheny-Vidovich Partners
This is the third appeal in the course of protracted litigation related to a short-lived agreement to purchase and develop a parcel of land in San Francisco. Appellants and plaintiffs, A.F.Evans Company, Inc., (Evans) and Charmaine Curtis (Curtis) negotiated and consummated a partnership agreement with defendant Doheny-Vidovich Partners (DVP) through its general partner defendant John Vidovich (Vidovich) in June of 1999. This litigation commenced nine months later. The procedural history of this matter is convoluted, to say the least, and involves the unusual circumstance of sequential trials with incongruent factual findings. Although plaintiffs outcome was improved in the second trial, they nonetheless appeal, seeking a reversal of the judgment and a new trial. Plaintiffs, however, have not demonstrated they suffered any prejudicial error in the over nine year course of the litigation. Court therefore affirm the judgment.
