City School District of City of Newburgh, Appellant v. Hugh Stubbins & Associates, Inc., Respondents

Summary

The Court affirmed the lower courts, holding that the statute of limitations for a claim arising from defective construction accrues at the date of completion of the building, even when the damage concerns personal property, and that the school district, as the intended beneficiary of the construction contract, is deemed to have the functional equivalent of privity with the contractors.
