Omstead v. Bpg Inspection, LLC

Summary

The Court held that a one-year contractual limitation barred the wrongful-death and related claims because the agreement expressly covered legal actions sounding in tort, contract, or otherwise. The limitation was not an exculpatory or indemnity provision and was not void as against public policy, even though the period expired before the wrongful-death claim accrued. The Court therefore affirmed the judgment requiring summary judgment for BPG.
