Defendant Port of Tacoma appeals from a judgment of $225,595.49 in favor of Y. C. Edwards Contracting Company and against the Port of Tacoma. Defendant also appeals from a judgment of dismissal dismissing a third-party defendant, McDowell-Wellman Engineering Company.
This appeal raises three issues: (1) Was there substantial evidence of breach of contract by the Port of Tacoma? (2) Were damages properly assessed? (3) Did the trial court properly dismiss the third-party defendant? We answer each question in the affirmative.
