Joe Iskra and Rani Singh v. Bear Roofing, LLC (Appeal from Jefferson Circuit Court: CV-15-902590).

Summary

The Supreme Court of Alabama reversed the summary judgment entered for Bear Roofing on the Iskras' third-party-beneficiary, express-warranty, and negligence claims. The evidence, viewed favorably to the Iskras, created genuine issues of material fact concerning whether Bear knew its repairs were made in contemplation of the home's imminent sale, whether the Iskras were intended beneficiaries of the warranty, and whether they detrimentally relied on Bear's performance. The cause was remanded for further proceedings.
