Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court

Trustees of Boston University v. Clough, Harbour & associates llp

April 16, 2025

Summary

The Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court held that the six‑year tort statute of repose does not bar the university’s breach‑of‑contract indemnification claim because the claim is grounded in an express contractual warranty, and therefore reversed the summary‑judgment ruling in favor of the architect and remanded for further proceedings.
