Description
Appellants-plaintiffs appeal from a summary final judgment entered in favor of the appellees-defendants, an engineering firm and its agent, in a cause of action brought by an employee of the general contractor, who was injured on a construction job. The parties both agree that how the accident happened is immaterial to proper resolution of this appeal. Rather, the issue on appeal is whether an engineering firm hired as consulting engineer of a road project by a state agency responsible for construction of roadways and toll facilities, owed a duty to the plaintiffs to institute, maintain, and inspect safety procedures at the construction site, and may be held liable for injuries suffered by the plaintiffs resulting from defendants negligent performance of its duties.
