A homeowner sued a construction company after a retaining wall they built collapsed, causing damage to the adjacent property and leading to a court order for the homeowner to pay damages to the neighbor, and the court of appeal affirmed the lower court's decision holding the construction company liable to indemnify the homeowner based on the breach of the implied warranty of fitness for purpose under the contract, reasoning that the wall's collapse demonstrated an inherent vice or defect in the work at the time of delivery, irrespective of the contractor's claim that the collapse was due to an unforeseeable accumulation of water.
