Johnson County faces damages trial in suit about detention center
Kansas City Business Journal - by Steve Vockrodt Staff Writer
A Kansas City construction company will ask for $1.8 million in damages as part of a lawsuit concerning its work on a Johnson County detention center project.
A Johnson County District Court judge ruled Oct. 6 that Building Construction Enterprises Inc. is entitled to a judgment. A jury trial scheduled for Feb. 22 will determine what damages BCE can obtain from the Public Building Commission, an arm of the Johnson County Board of County Commissioners.
The county disputes the judgment and could file an appeal once the trial is completed.
