DEVELOPMENTS IN THE LAW -
THE MORRISON LAW JOURNAL

The Morrison Law Group is responsible for publishing The Morrison Law Journal, a monthly legal journal which discusses important developments in California law.

The July 2008 edition of The Morrison Law Journal discusses the California Supreme Court decision in Crawford v. Weather Shield Manufacturing Inc. (2008) Westlaw 2789215, whereby the State High Court ruled that, in the context of a residential construction defect case, the duty to defend the developer or prime contractor under a subcontractor construction contract is (i) to be read into any garden variety subcontractor indemnity clause, (ii) the duty to defend is triggered immediately upon tender and (iii) the duty to defend will remain in effect even if the subcontractor is later absolved of any negligence at trial.
