Roscoe Steel & Culvert Co. v. Morillo Construction
This action is Morillo Construction, Inc.’s third attempt to sue the City of Pasadena (City) for damages arising out of the City’s cancellation of a portion of a construction project. In 2008, Morillo and the City entered into a contract whereby Morillo agreed to serve as the general contractor on a project for the construction of one building and the renovation of another. Midway through the project, the City cancelled the renovation portion of the project. Morillo separately sued the City for breach of contract in both 2011 and 2012. Judgment was entered for the City in the first action, and the second action is pending.In 2015, Morillo filed the third and present lawsuit against the City for what it calls “tortious” breach of contract, and against City employees for fraud and negligence arising from their management of the project’s budget.
