Citation A129548
WCC Citation WCC 38162011 CA
PAUL ZINCHIK et al. , Plaintiffs and Appellants, v. JAMES W. MOORE, Defendant and Appellant. Zinchik did not feel that defendant "had a handle on the project," in terms of costs and billings. She called Zinchik and sent e-mails to him regularly that informed him of the progress and costs of the work. Zinchik testified that all of the bidding, orders for materials, and negotiating with subcontractors "always went through" Perez-Stable. The trial court based this date on the response by defendant to billing inquiries made by Paul Zinchik and the subsequent directives by defendant to Zinchik regarding the role of Perez-Stable.
