Lombardo v. Pierson

Washington Supreme Court

Decided June 3, 1993No. 59428-7PublishedCited by 15 opinions

1Opinion of the CourtDurham, J.

Appellant Shirley Lombardo brought this action against respondent Ticor Title Insurance Company (Ticor) and various other parties for failing to disclose a document uncovered during a title search conducted prior to the purchase of her farm. The document, entitled "Agreement to Retain Land in Irrigable Status", alluded to potential seepage problems and purported to be a covenant running with the land. The trial court granted Ticor's CR 12(b)(6) motion dismissing the title company because the document did not affect title, or otherwise encumber the property. We affirm.
