Summary, etc. [2005] EWHC 181 (TCC), 24 February 2005. Claimant (G) claimed damages from John Laing Construction Ltd (L) and Laing Construction plc for breaches of the Construction Management Agreement (CMA) between the parties on 30 April 1998. This was for L's alleged misconduct as construction manager of the project which had delayed it by about 44 calendar weeks. L defended itself by alleging that G made misrepresentations when it entered into the CMA and sought damages under the Misrepresentation Act 1967. Case centred upon whether a construction manager was liable for organising trade contractors and could therefore be responsible for losses that occurred when they did not perform properly. The judge condemned L over its performance of the scheme and criticised Tony Caletka, L's expert witness. Ruling in favour of G means that L will have to pay damages of more than £10m, although it may appeal.
