Chichian v City of Los Angeles CA2/2
A homeowner sued a city for inverse condemnation, contending the repair and stabilization work the city performed on an adjacent hillside damaged the home and its downslope patio. Following a bench trial on the issue of liability, the trial court found that the homeowner did not carry its burden of proving that the city’s work was a “cause” or a “substantial factor in causing the damage” to the home or patio. On appeal, the homeowner argues that the trial court misapplied the law, wrongly excluded evidence, and improperly evaluated the evidence. We reject each of these challenges and affirm.
