A property owner sued a construction company for damages, alleging that unauthorized foundation work, performed near the property line, caused cracks in the retaining wall, which the company argued was a necessary structural modification to support its adjacent building; the Court of Cassation upheld the lower court's finding that the company was liable for the resulting damage because the construction, even if necessary, caused harm to a neighboring property, thereby violating the principle that no one should cause undue prejudice to others.
