Description
In this case we are called upon to decide whether homeowners alleging the negligent construction and design of their home by a builder/vendor can be barred from recovery under the applicable statute of limitations. Petitioner Wood Bros. Homes, Inc., a builder/vendor of residential homes, appeals the decision of our court of appeals affirming a judgment entered on a jury verdict for the homeowners, Dennis L. and Deborah R. Howard, arguing that section 13-80-104(1)(a-b), 6A C.R.S. (1987), and not the predecessor limitation statute, applies to the claims asserted against it. Wood Bros. Homes, Inc. also challenges the court of appeals decision that the cause be remanded to the trial court for the imposition of attorney fees. We granted certiorari on these issues and now affirm the court of appeals decision upholding the jury verdict for the homeowners, but reverse the court of appeals decision awarding attorney fees and court costs.
