95 P. 43 | Cal. | 1907
The plaintiff appeals from a judgment entered in favor of defendants in an action to foreclose a street assessment lien for work done in the city of San Pedro.
The various proceedings of the city board of trustees leading up to the contract itself provided that the work should be done in accordance with certain specifications on file in the office of the city clerk. These specifications included the following clause: “All loss or damage arising from the 'nature of the work to be done under this agreement, or from any unforeseen obstruction or difficulties which may be encountered in the prosecution of the same, or from the action of the elements, or from encumbrances on the lines of the work, or from any act or omission on the part of the contractor, or any person or agent employed by him, not authorized by this agreement, shall be sustained by the contractor.’’ In the case of Blochman v. Spreckels, 135 Cal. 662, 57 L. R. A. 213, 67
The judgment is affirmed.
