Description
Appellants, Country Village Homes, Inc., B&A Realty, Inc., M.B. Schauer Homes, Inc., Schauer Family Trust, and Monte B. Schauer (collectively Country Village), appeal a judgment, entered in accordance with the jurys verdict, that awarded $550,000 in damages to appellees, Robert E. and Sherry Patterson, in a dispute over the construction of the Pattersons house. The jury determined that the Pattersons owed Country Village nothing for various "extras" over and above the contract price; that the appellants, though ostensibly separate entities, acted as a single business enterprise (the Single Business Enterprise theory); that Schauer was responsible for the conduct of Country Village Homes, Inc. (the Alter Ego theory); that flaws in the construction of the house breached Country Villages contract with the Pattersons; that the cost of repair was $300,000; and, that the difference between fair market value of the property had it been built properly and the fair market value of the property if repaired would be $250,000. The trial court entered judgment in favor of the Pattersons against Country Village Homes, Inc., B&A Realty, Inc., M.B. Schauer Homes, Inc., Schauer Family Trust, and Monte B. Schauer, jointly and severally, in the amount of $712,890.41.
