Plourde Sand & Gravel Co. v. JGI Eastern, Inc. F/K/A Jaworski Geotech, Inc.

Summary

The Supreme Court of New Hampshire affirmed the district court’s dismissal of Plourde Sand & Gravel Co.’s writ. The court held that the plaintiff could not recover purely economic losses in tort because no special relationship existed and the negligent misrepresentation exception was unavailable due to lack of reliance. The court also concluded that the negligent misrepresentation issue was properly before it.
