Underground Construction v. City of Oakland
Underground Construction Co., Inc. (Underground) worked on a construction project in Oakland (the Project) that included relocating existing overhead electrical, telephone, and cable television lines into conduit laid in underground trenches; removing and replacing sidewalks and adding ramps; and installing utility boxes and street light foundations. During the course of the Project, disputes arose between Underground, the City of Oakland (the City), and the owners of the affected utility lines[1] regarding how much Underground was owed for certain aspects of the work. Ultimately, Underground sued the City and the Utilities (collectively the Owner Parties) for additional sums it alleged were due under the contract for the Project.
