Slavin v. Borinstein

Opinion

HASTINGS, J.

This is an appeal from an award in favor of contractor Leon Slavin (respondent) and against property owner Joan W. Borinstein (appellant) for contracting costs, fees and profits relating to a residence in Bel Air. Appellant asserts one issue on appeal: that the trial court erred in not finding that an amendment to the original agreement between appellant and respondent dated August 10, 1983, was a covenant which limited respondent’s recovery for contractor’s fees to the total sum of $300,000. We find appellant’s argument without merit and we affirm.
