Kuzdovich v. Cochrane CA1/3
Appellant Steve Cochrane (Cochrane) and respondent Chris Kuzdovich (Kuzdovich) entered into a contract according to which Cochrane agreed to pay Kuzdovich for renovation work performed by Kuzdovich on a property in Kensington, California. After Kuzdovich left the job, Cochrane discovered numerous problems with Kuzdovich’s work, and incurred significant time and expense making repairs. Cochrane failed to pay Kuzdovich, Kuzdovich sued Cochrane for breach of contract, and Cochrane asserted an affirmative defense of setoff. A jury awarded Kuzdovich $30,738.93 in damages on his breach of contract claim, and awarded Cochrane $6,023 in damages on his setoff claim. Cochrane argues on appeal that the trial court committed prejudicial error when it failed to permit the introduction of lost profits evidence during trial. For the reasons that follow, we affirm.
