Description

Sun Valley Water Beds of Utah, Inc., F.B.B. Enterprises, and Frank Imbrie (collectively "Sun Valley") sought reimbursement for property damages sustained when the roof of its ten-year-old building in Ogden, Utah, partially collapsed. Herm Hughes & Son, Inc. ("Hughes") was the buildings general contractor. Hughes moved for summary judgment on the ground that Sun Valleys claims were time-barred by Utahs architects and builders statute of repose, which bars claims of injury to persons or property brought more than seven years after completion of construction. Its motion was granted. Sun Valley appeals, claiming that the architects and builders statute of repose violates (1) the open courts provision of the Utah Constitution, (2) the equal protection guarantees of the United States and Utah Constitutions, (3) the Utah constitutional prohibition against special legislation, and (4) the United States and Utah constitutional guarantees of due process.
